    Legally no it was not wrong
    Ethically yes it was wrong

    Business wise it was wrong because it allowed other companies to come in and under cut him in price. Turing is laying off staff
    Also Retrophin is suing him for $65 million so that 45 mill isn't going to last long

    As well as being a douchebag harassing 14 year kids of his former employees

    I guess you can stomach supporting the actions of a total douchebag, but I can't.

  5. He's a nice guy, I talked to him on his livestream. You probably read too much news. TV and newspapers don't represent the truth.

  6. Ethics are supposed to be debated, you can't say something is unethical and that's it.

    I liked his livestream too. He's a genius. The drug price hike was stupid. I haven't read nor am I interested in what crimes he's alleged to have committed but we need more genius's.

    ethics are supposed to be a given, un-debatable, absolute.

    I support his freedom to hike drug prices, but it was dumb, drew unwanted attn., and unethical. I support absolute ethics more than freedom, but you won't find anyone who supports freedom more than I support freedom.
