Remember Martin Shkreli , who bought the rights to manufacture a pill that is needed by Aids patients and was selling for 13.50 a pill,and jacked the price up to 750??
Well, another company has decided to make another generic of that very same drug, and is going to be charging 99 cents per pill (that is 99 dollars for a 100 count). I suspect it is to first of all, head off the potential of having the industry be burdened by regulations, since people were talking about laws being put into place, and second of all, to embarrass the hell out of Shkreli
