Shkreli Needs to be Treated Like the Dentist who killed the Lion

If not worldwide at least national shaming for raising the price of drugs to such high levels.

I was almost going to make a poll about who is worse but it doesn't need to be a contest.

At the very least there should be the same level of outrage as that dentist got.

Losing money is probably the only consequence he would notice.

Note that despite the public shaming and having to close his clinic for weeks, the dentist is back doing business as usual.

Shkreli deserves far worse.

There is ALWAYS a bigger asshole somewhere. THAT'S what I'm hoping for this jerk.
