Abuse and incompetence can be perfectly "rational" depending on what you value in life. And the point was about existing infrastructure. The drug existed, and made money, at $13, using paid for infrastructure that did other things, made other drugs as well, run by an existing staff that had other tasks. You don't buy a car to drive 1 mile or start a restaurant to serve 1 meal. Instead, an existing company should make a competitor, say Imprimis Pharmaceuticals, which did so in 2015 for $1.00 each. This is fundamentally about abusing power and position for profit and saying others should get the same power and position to stop the abuse. My only contention is that isn't reality and the world doesn't work that way.
