Sarcastic tone forgiven, because I was there once too, but it seems like it's mostly liberals and progressives who are upset by this, while conservatives and capitalists more willing to forgive it. That seems backwards to me, as the progressive argument is that costs should be spread throughout society, from the haves to the have nots, and that if this is already the shell game of insurance anyway, it seems silly that Daraprim wasn't already playing it. Either way, the capitalists had the right of it -- if the price was too high, there's a $1 per pill alternative right now. Assuming that all else holds true, I just don't see the harm here any more than I see the harm in Motorola charging $800 for their top of the line cell phones while Wal-Mart has one for a small fraction of that.
