1. Is he an a-hole?
I don't care what you call him but he's still better than those politicians grilling him and trying to score political points.
2. Did he break the law?
No.
3. Did he break any moral code?
Depends on whose moral code we are talking about. Moral standard changes from day to day, from person to person. Many considered homosexuality immoral but today it's widely accepted in US. Moral standard is not a reliable standard that we can use to judge people.
4. Was he trying to get rich?
Yes. We all want to get rich. Nothing wrong with that.
5. Was he trying to get rich at the expense of harming people?
Yes. All businesses try to get rich at the expense of harming people. Competition would drive people out of work or business, causing depression, suicide, lost of medical coverage etc. etc. etc. Many companies operate businesses that are harmful to the environment causing sickness such as cancer; others produce products designed purposely to kill people in mass.
6. He shouldn't raise price for a lifesaving medicine.
He's within his legal right to do whatever to the drug he owns legally. Virtually every drug company does the same thing just may not be to the same extent or you haven't heard about it. Many lifesaving drugs are extremely expensive and unafforable to the general public. Plenty of people die because they can't afford those medicine. If we go outside of America, millions of people die because they can't afford even those drugs we think are cheap.
in this article, there is a hip replacement topic where in USA, cost of making artificial one is 350$ and i will leave you guys to see how much patient has to shell out to buy it! Also says hip replacement surgery cost can be near the cost of lower end tesla model whereas in austria (probably most part of europe) is about 3-4 times cheaper than US. Why, it says quote: because the whole market in USA is governed by few monopolies wiht cartel type of price gouging and no one gives a **** about them including congress. May be congress think it is too big to fail!

The Major Corporations in America pretty much own the government and have all the power over the people under the illusion of Capitalism. Capitalism will still exist without Corporations infesting DC
The citizens and workers of this country lose either way from this arrangement and bare the brunt of this war no matter if it is Obamacare or the Military Industrial Complex latest War Campaign
We need to throw them out of DC and give the country back to Pro Americans
