If the reason is political then the reason is wrong and it looks highly suspicious because at the moment there's a witch hunt on against successful capitalists and in particular, people really hate this guy for completely the wrong reasons:
(a) Because he's wealthy (b) Because they think he has done something wrong.
There is nothing wrong with raising the price of a drug to $750 or $7500. His company owned that product and was not breaking any laws. All it does is encourage other companies to come and attack the same problem, introduce a cheaper solution to steal market share and that is competition in what is supposed to be a free market.
However, you can see from the comments in this thread that most people don't agree with me.

Horse shit! There would be nothing wrong raising the price of a drug if it was done in a free market, but we don't live in a free market. Big pharma has a monopoly on prices and law makers in this country and have made it so we can't go to other countries and buy the same drugs at a cheaper price!
