Martin Shkreli, expert media troll, kicked off Twitter

[lewfather]

So don't take his word for it but take former disgruntled employees word for how he allocated and misused 10s of millions of dollars? K. He's running a publically traded company, the books are open. He is not making any money off of daraprim. He's reinvesting $$$ back into research to find a possibly better version of Daraprim though. Also he's raised prices on a lot of drugs that he owns but of course, lib media just wanted to get those hooks in on one. BTW it's not his fault that he's in business, he's a capitalist not a socialist. That's sort of how the bingo runs around these parts. Clearly the media built this up to an unfathomable level, even yourself just said what he's done by raising prices is not new.

My entire point is he's not as bad as the liberal media has tried to portray him to be.

c'mon Lewis.

The SEC has had this imbecile in their sights for a long time. but just like Jordan Belfort, Uncle Sam takes forever. his time will come, just like the Wolf Of Wallstreets did.

Innocent until proven guilty, my child.

i have for sure given him a listen, a bunch of times, and he's a good storyteller, but reality doesn't jibe with what comes out of his mouth. Not even close. He didn't raise the price on unprofitable drugs, he raised the price on drugs that the companies were already making good profits from, but Shkreli price-gouges. LOL at not taking any pharma money he earns, some of his former employers seem to think he essentially took/misused tens of millions from them in improper fashion. Also, "everyone who can't afford it gets it free." No, that's really not true with any drug. A portion of people will, but a much, MUCH larger portion will end up going into debt when their insurance will cover a portion but not nearly enough to make the drug affordable at any dosage, or they make doctors come back with alternatives that cost a LOT less but are also less effective. Martin doesn't mention that shit, but its realer than real deal Holyfield. His price-gouging has real world effects on people who are in no position to do anything about it.

The entire industry is crooked, but Martin puts the rest of them to shame. He's not doing anything new, he's just doing it on a scale most rational people would never consider. You can say not to snap judge him off liberal pundits, and let me assure you I did not. I would say to you, don't judge him by what he says about himself or by the words of people who's only concern is the money being made.

"BTW it's not his fault that he's in business, he's a capitalist not a socialist." Oh, I forgot, there are no more business ethics anymore. Everyone before him at the places he got these drugs from were in business too, and they all seemed to think his price-raising was unconscionable as well. They weren't trying to NOT make money, were they? No, of course not.

and please drop the "lib media" bullshit. Even Fox News called it karma when the law started going after this goon.

If you decide what is right or wrong by what the law is and what it allows, you are sadly misguided IMO. I never once even hinted that this dude was going to bring down the system, but if you don't think he fucks shit up for everyone else INCLUDING US, I dare say you are being very short-sighted. I'd continue, but I gotta run to, oddly enough, go get some drugs.

but yea, this 1 drug is going to crack and crumble the entire system as we know it.

I'll take Things I Never Said Or Hinted At for $1000, Alex.

The place he bought it off of raised the prices themselves and he swooped in told them he was going to raise it another time after his purchase. You see when you buy something and you want to sell it you have to sell it at a higher price than what you purchased said good for.

Also there's still clearly a demand for the product, maybe the company before him was under selling it? The Govt doesn't set the market price the manufacturer of the product does and its demand of it.

I guess we agree to disagree on this one, it's still one of the cheapest drugs of its kind on the market.

[SysOp]

the guy is a faggot

[Dan Druff]

BUMP

He's going on trial for trial for securities fraud.

Apparently he ran a ponzi scheme, among other things.

This is all unrelated to what he did with that AIDS drug.

So it turns out that this guy is worse than just a hyper-capitalist who heartlessly pursued profits over everything else.

He's also a career scammer.

Anyone who previously admired this guy should definitely give him no admiration now.

What a shock that the good doctor identifies with scammers.

Is that why you appointed Sparky Grizwold as moderator on your site so many times?

Martin Shkreli is...


A: smarter than you

B: much less of a douche than you

C: has more money than you

D: more famous than you


and if you bothered to even watch any of his appearances at Harvard or in town hall type meetings, you would realize the guy has been unfairly vilified by the pharmaceutical lobby via MSM and a propaganda campaign

I can't wait till he gets off from ALL charges

Todd you just WISH you were as skilled as he was

I wish I was a career scammer facing up to 20 years in prison?

Um, no.

Interesting idol you have there, Martin.

[Stueyivey]

The guys a douche but how can anyone feel bad for people who get caught up in a ponzi scheme. The people who get sucked into them are doing it out of pure greed, they deserve to lose all their money.

The crypto scene is flush with these schemes. 1%+ a day returns..guaranteed. Anyone who falls for something like that deserves what they get.

[Wiganer]

Marty, if you love this guy so much then throw him a bone

Hes been live on youtube for days now.

[DonaldTrumpsHairPiece]

Nothing sadder than watching someone defend cruel, unethical and heartless business decisions simply because the person made large sums of money, as if it s a justifier.

Personally your name should not have a value to it, I suppose I am rare.

The guy may or may not be guilty of the charges but he certainly is guilty on the ethical scale.
