Killing is too nice, just remove his junk. A knife isn't even required; I bet high test line makes it through security just fine.

Don't hate the player, hate the game. The fact that a market exists where this can be done, is the govt's fault. It's within the govt's power to fix it. Expecting this guy to "be a decent human being" is fine, but wrong. The regulatory framework that created this opportunity should also be used to close this and other opportunities like it.
The problem is that most people in the US are too stupid to realize that unfettered capitalism isn't a good thing in every sector of society and their elected officials are all in the pockets of the companies that benefit from that belief. I'm pretty confident that we'll be living with this degree of asshattery for some time.

There's no doubt that society would benefit by shotgunning this guy in the face. However perhaps this type of absurdity will get people to wake up and realize free market Pharma and health care is not a stupendously great idea.

Well, there's a divide between market regulation and production regulation and quality/efficacy assurance.
It seems to me, not being a law-man, that he's gaming the production and quality regulations in order to exploit the absence of a market regulation.
And I agree wholeheartedly about free market pharma/health care. Elective services, free market your heart out. This is America after all. And there is a place for that. We don't need someone in the state house deciding how much LASIK should cost. That's a waste of everyone's time. But non-elective services and goods? Those should be at least thought of as a communal good. We don't need Capteen Capitalism over here deciding that flu vaccines should cost $2,000 an ounce.

If it we truly free market another company would instantly start producing the same pull for a far lower price.
But they can't, due to government regulation.

Those regulations stop you from getting sawdust in pill form.
Not even kidding. The Chinese got caught putting sheetrock into OTC meds and supplements about 10 years ago and it was a pretty big deal. This dude here, he wouldn't be above it. At all.
You WANT the kinds of production and quality regulations that are in place. You want to know that when a bottle is labeled ibuprofin that is exactly what it is. The problem being expressed here in this price hike is a problem of inefficient regulation rather than over regulation.

Yea not having a you can't "price gouge" law on the books isn't what I could call inefficient regulation.
This guy is able to do this for the sole reason that the cost/time to bring another generic to the market isn't worth it from a business stand point.
Assoles like this guy will always exist. 99 times out of a hundred its government regulation or red tape that allows them to be assholes and get away with shitty behaviour like this.

Patents, copyrights, and intellectual property would still be a thing in a free market economy. Unless of course you want all drug development to completely stop because your formula can just be trivially copied by anyone after you sink hundreds of millions into discovering it.
It's due to government regulation that generics exist at all, without it drug companies would be like fucking Disney and keep the rights to their intellectual property basically forever. Drugs would NEVER come down in price, because the drug formula would be considered their intellectual property and they'd NEVER have to let anyone else make a cheap version. Gilead would get to price gouge Sovaldi for $100,000 indefinitely, rather than just for 9-11 years.

Dafuq?
Its due to govt regulation that any IP rights exist at all. How can you claim without govt regulation drug companies would be like Disney, who relies on... copyright law... which is govt regulation?

We need more regulations, not less, to protect the public from pharma crooks like this.

Do you not realize it's idiotic regulation in the first place that allows douchebags like this guy to pull this kind of shit?
Fact is considerable amount of regulation and laws and oversight has zero to do with safety and protecting consumers. What they are really there for is to protect the establishment, serve as barriers of entry.
