Brain Eating Zombie of the Day

Martin Shkreli
And I meant that literally.
Not to mention, Worst Person in the World.

A $750 Pill And A Founder Who Doesn’t Know When To Stop Tweeting
The New York Times ran a piece Sunday looking into why a 62-year-old pill saw its price skyrocket from $13.50 to nearly $750 after it was acquired by Turing Pharmaceuticals last month.
The increase in the price of Daraprim, a drug that the Times reported “is the standard of care for treating a life-threatening parasitic infection,” will undoubtedly have a major impact on those struggling to keep up with high prescription drug costs.
This is unconscionable
Toxoplasmosis is a frakking brain infection.   It makes you insane.  
This is flat out extortion.

Why do they do this?   Because they can.   What's an infected person to do? 
And the asshole in charge is the most callous sonofabitch I've ever witnessed.   At least Bruce Cozadd knows he's got to protect his racket.
Martin Shkreli's brain is clearly infected with something.
Read the article.  Read his tweets.  It's nauseating.
