    Nah, there's always someone who thinks they're smarter than everyone else. It is regrettable that someone with so much going for him decided to piss it away by being a shit, but that's his problem. We all lose when someone who could do so much good goes off the rails, but if anything that's even more of a reason to drop the hammer on him.

    Sometimes events really make you think there is such a thing as karma.

    A part of me wishes they ship him off to a shitty prison, like Shawshank before Andy Dufrene got there.

    I think you meant 'before Andy Dufrene left there'. Up until then you still had the Warden and Bull as tyrants.

    Well, the IRS and the state of New York are fighting over the seized assets, so it might be a while before we get to hear the Wu Tang album. https://read.bi/2IZnHqB

    Just a reminder, as much as we enjoy Shkreli getting everything he deserves, it wasn’t buying up decades old life saving drugs and then jacking up the price 400% that put this shit bird in jail, but cheating out other rich assholes that knowingly invested in his vulture capitalism business model that did it.

    And that's just fucking sad, because the real criminals in your country can be found on Wall Street and in your financial institutions.

    Idiot boy is suing his former company, blaming them for his being in prison.

    Wu Tang has a few thoughts about him.
