On the subject of him raising the price of Daraprim, a pill used to help treat AIDS, by 5000%.
I don't understand his reasoning when he argues that "around 2/3rds of Daraprim patients get it for free" when that only means that insurance companies and other private buyers only increase rates and taxes for ordinary people. In fact, it affects those who don't even buy the drug but use these services, as they have to have increased insurance rates to make Daraprim a financially viable drug.
On a separate note, I simultaneously respect him for making a TON of money and taking full advantage of the capitalist society we live in and at the same time dislike him for doing something that is morally questionable.
