Morally bankrupt

-

“$1,000 pill is going to bankrupt us,” (Insight, Aug. 4) has already morally bankrupted our society. When a drug company has found not just a treatment but a cure for a potentiall­y deadly disease and then makes that drug prohibitiv­ely expensive, why is Paul Markovich so worried about the money? He should be asking what kind of society would essentiall­y withhold that treatment from all those who could benefit. It’s a cure!
