I'm a big believer in karma. I think bad deserves bad and good most definitely deserves good. If you are fabulous person who is kind to puppies and babies, you deserve a fabulous life full of only good things. And if you're a horrible person you don't deserve all those fabulous things. It's not scientific but it's a strongly held belief of mine. Though, so often in today's world, it never happens. Kind people get hurt while the rich just keep getting richer.
That's why when today's big headline broke, it became my most favorite story of 2015. You probably remember the head of a pharmaceutical company from a few months ago - the guy that decided it was in his best interest to raise the cost of a drug used mostly by cancer and AIDS patients by about 5000%. Yeah, that guy is a despicable human being. Yet, in the last few months, he's pretty much gotten away with it. Sure millions of people hate him but the cost of the medication still hasn't dropped back down to the original price so he and his stockholders are rolling the dough.
That's where today comes in. Today, the FBI arrested this horrible excuse for a human being on Securities Fraud - completely unrelated to the cost of the medication. While I would have liked a price hike like that to have been illegal, at least he's finally getting what he deserves.
Karma, dude. Every once in a while, it hits the right people.
