>If the law allows it, don't expect companies not to do it.

This is outright fraud. The law does not allow it. They purposefully misrepresented their product for financial gain.




> And if the law doesn't allow it, but the regulators never drop the hammer, don't expect people not to do it.

I'm not saying it isn't fraud. I'm saying that its par for the course when regulators rarely take action. Mylan got greedy and got slapped. Regulatory bodies in the US are woefully underfunded and this sort of thing is the result. Blame congress.


64% of murders currently result in an conviction. At what percentage would it no longer be the perpetrators responsibility for the crime and instead be the fault of the lawmakers lack of ability to bring him to justice?


Well, if only a handful ever get investigated because the police are understaffed... well then follow the funding. You get the regulatory environment you vote for.


You can vote one way and get something else. Your logic does not hold.


How do you know it's a murder if there's no conviction? I'm not sure I understand this Stat.


That's a straw man (I think)
