He's actually a pretty decent guy go fuck yourself

>>675192228
All bad things aside hes pretty chill dude tbh

All the guy did was raise the price of a drug so they could recover cost of investment. There was a consultant with a clause in his contract where on a company buyout, consultant was entitled a shitload of money. This is just bullshit propaganda for socialized medicine.

>>675192228
Go back to /r/BernieSanders faggot

His finance advice is pretty legit

dude did nothing wrong, don't believe everything the media tells you

>>675192228
he gives 60% of Daraprim away for $1 and those who cant afford it can contact him personally and get it for free

the rest who can afford it get it paid off by their insurance companies

dont believe the medias lies

he often gives finance and chemistry lessons on youtube as well

anyways, NYPA faggot, fuck off

least this shitposter is using a proxy now.
before it was literally,15 posts. 1 poster.

>>675196319
Yeah, only found out about this a while ago
I'm really impressed with how dedicated he is to putting up with the idiots that try and debate with him on skype using only what they've heard from the media

>>675192228
I didn't know Martin had the kind of free time to spampost these boards right now.

what do the hands mean

>>675192228
>>675196319

also bear in mind Daraprim is a drug which has terrible side effects and has had no r&d for decades - his company purchased the drug and have raised the price in order to make a better one

but if you want to be a mindless drone that believes everything on TV or Facebook then go do that I guess

>>675196677
he had a chat with an HIV positive guy on his webcam, guy comes into one of his blab things swearing and all, Martin calmly explains everything to him for like 15 minutes and the guy changes his mind about Martin and what he has done

check it out if you havent

(I hate that fat Billy guy btw, hes always online, guy seems like a suckup douche)

>raise the price to recover cost of investment
>end up staying in the deficit cause no one can afford it

Lemme be honest even from a purely business point of view what he did was absolutely retarded.

>>675197567
no i hate u

>>675197730
did he end up losing money in the end?

>>675197857
uuhh yea. No one could buy the drug, spent tens of millions of dollars to buy the drug for the sake of making more money only to end up making it impossible to buy. Thats pretty retarded

>>675197730
>>675198148
company is making a loss and he doesnt give himself a salary from the company

hes not in it to make a quick buck, i think he genuinely wants to improve this drug

>>675198148
the drugs not impossible to buy lol, 60% of it is given away for a buck

bear in mind this is a very niche drug to treat toxoplasmosis infection in HIV+ people (of which there are only a few thousand ppl in the US) which is why no company found it profitable to do research into this drug and nothing was done to improve it till purchased by Turing Pharma

Hes actually hilarious

>>675198308
yes thats fine but understand his reasoning, he said that at the former price it was unprofitable so they wouldnt have enough money to make off of it to improve it, so what does he do? he buys the drug for some tens of millions of dollars, then he makes it impossible to buy. 750$ PER PILL. even if they wanna improve the drug nothing wrong with that, but if the company is already in a 50+mill deficit from buying the rights to the drug then makes it impossible to make the money back plus a profit, so making a new drug is just pointless then. Also if what they wanted was a better drug then donate the money to the research firm instead of trying to profit off of sick people, assuming the end game was to make a new drug. He may be a good guy personally but he should remain unemployed for a very very long time

poor martin, nonstop idiots coming in
he looks bored out of his mind

>>675199579
profiting off of sick people? you know it's insurance companies paying for it, right?
and if it can't be covered it's given for free

>>675199579
.........

the pill is not impossible to buy, those who are covered by insurance have the insurance companies bear the bulk of the cost

and those who cant afford it can get it for $1

The other two panels were filled with girls for the sole purpose of pleasing him, opposed to answering legitimate questions, informing the public on topics, or doing something... I don't know... worthwhile. He has investors and coworkers who wouldn't be too pleased with his public behavior. He's acting like an ass. He's totally trashed.

What bad things?

(Serious question)

>>675193143
He's a fucking asshole.

>>675192228
A few years ago, Charlie Rose hosted a panel of biotech gurus who presented a mini-seminar, with elaborate infographics, about the process of how drugs are developed, tested, and brought to market. What stands out most in my mind is that it costs about a billion dollars for each one that proves effective and safe enough to meet first world standards. When you think about it, most of the reason it's so expensive is that problem-solving in biochemistry is monstrously difficult due to the intrinsic complexity of organisms that took billions of years to evolve. Whatever one's political opinion is about how to pay for solving such problems, it is a little depressing to contemplate how feeble our brains really are in comparison to the mechanisms that gave rise to them in the first place.

>>675197730
Everyone who needs it can get it. It's more than affordable for patients & there's only 2,000 - 3,000 people who need it total. The corporations that buy it from his company foot that price, & they can more than affords it.

>>675204511
How so? Trolling is trolling.

>>675196792
He's livestreaming himself sitting on the computer every single day, & you didn't know he had free time?

>>675204511
>Giving most of the drug away for free
>Money earned from the small portion that is bought goes towards development of a version without any side effects as bas as the current ones
>"Fucking asshole"

>>675192228
you guys still going on about this bastard? let it go. In the slim chance he truly was trying to work the system to turn a fortune off a drug, it's a drug for people who have HIV. you know who gets HIV? degenerates, gays and prostitutes. Dude's using finance to put some chlorine into the gene pool and everybody flips their lids.

get real

>>675197162
Billy's alright. He has stupid rap videos on YouTube. He's kind of funny.

>>675196306
Skreli himself was quoted asking if he has any regrets, to which he stated he only regretted not raising the price of the drug higher. Go play in traffic.

>>675201080
Yet he ain't.

>>675204511
No he's really not, you just read the short news stories and didn't actually look into the full story. He's actually a very good guy.

>>675201359
OP?

>>675204280
If you want content there's tons of these recorded on YouTube where he gives like 3 hour finance classes, chemistry lessons, etc etc

A lot of the time he's just fucking around on his computer & wants company to talk to.

>>675193143
This. Do your research OP

>>675206002
You don't understand the situation any better than them.

>>675206424
Yeah & that would have been bad how?

Come in out of the traffic.

>>675206424
Fucking moron, Drug companies raise drug prices and claim r&d all the time. Where is news story of that shit. Congress is lobbied so they can charge 1200x what people in other countries pay. What is he suppose to not do what every company is doing? The Hepitis c drug is like $1100 a fucking pill. Such changes bullshit - you know he also have a legal obligation to make as much money as the law allows for his stock holders? They could fucking sue him?

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2016/02/02/how-pharma-bro-martin-shkreli-described-his-own-drug-price-hike-almost-all-of-it-is-profit/

Shkreli's moral compass is completely fucked up but he's just playing the system like everyone else. He's just too much of a retard to hike the drug at such a massive increase.

What we need is a completely reform of the system.

this site sucks, always freezing.

>>675208580
How's his moral compass fucked up if the profits are going toward making sure sick people are cured, & research & development for better cures without the shitty side effects? That is exactly what's happening because of him. TUR09.
He cares more for his patients than any CEO you could name.

>>675206424
shows you how much of a retard he is. Every single drug company is playing the system but increasing the price slowly as to stay under the radar. Then along comes Mr FuckWit and the whole thing gets wide open. There are a lot of fucking pissed off drug executives because of him.

>>675209316
That's exactly why he's been demonized in the media. Pharma & the media have incestuous money buttering their bread. Shkreli knew about the attention that would come from his move, & he knew the ignorant backlash was coming.
He doesn't care though, he's just gonna keep doing what's right regardless if the whole world hates him. That's a fucking man.

Read the article. "Hospitals also began to contact the company to let it know that the price increase had made it difficult to obtain drugs and some switched to another medication. Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston complained to the company in early October that after spending a week trying to obtain Daraprim for an uninsured patient, they had not had success and had received inaccurate information from the team." Free drugs is a PR gimmick, nobody got time to wait for it.

>>675209902
Nope, he's still a fucking a retard. The smart ones are still making billions while he's facing lawsuits, jail time, and lose millions.

>>675210613
All the while doing what he believes is right in order to help the patients.

>>675211166
martin, go to fucking bed already

>>675210325
If they need it, they can get it. The highest price I've been able to find evidence of anyone paying for their 30-day prescription of Daraprim is $27.
There are so few patients for this drug that despite the hospitals that can't afford it, it will be obtainable through a Walmart pharmacy or something equally accessible.

>>675211166
A failure is a failure. Let's not forget why he's facing jail time. Because he tried to run a ponzi scheme and he failed that too.

>>675192228
not ur fucking army nigger

Whitney Cummings & his sob story. Making a speech about Martin ruining lives while Cummings voted to kill thousands of Americans & others in profit wars overseas.

>>675211939
"We may need to make some updates based on co-pay amounts we've been seeing since the price change ... there are patients waiting now for product who have a $6,000 co-pay," Tina Ghorban, director of business analytics and consumer insights at Turing, wrote in an internal email in August. Straight quote from the article.

>>675211337
If this was Martin he'd be trolling the fuck out of you, I'm actually defending a good man who does very little to make himself look better to those that hate him.
