Just excusing Lochte. In the big picture it's not that big of a deal but he's not a kid, it's not Spring Break, and he's the idiot that turned it into something. No one else.

The Brazilians took it up a big notch when they started issuing orders to pull people off their flights over it. Lochte and gang were in the wrong, but the armed negotiation wasn't a good look either and the subsequent official reaction seemed over the top defensive.lukethedrifter wrote:Just excusing Lochte.

Mylan CEO's Pay Rose Over 600 Percent as EpiPen Price Rose 400 Percent
EpiPen prices aren't the only thing to jump at Mylan. Executive salaries have also seen a stratospheric uptick.
Proxy filings show that from 2007 to 2015, Mylan CEO Heather Bresch's total compensation went from $2,453,456 to $18,931,068, a 671 percent increase. During the same period, the company raised EpiPen prices, with the average wholesale price going from $56.64 to $317.82, a 461 percent increase, according to data provided by Connecture.
In 2007 the company bought the rights to EpiPen, a device used to provide emergency epinephrine to stop a potentially fatal allergic reaction and began raising its price. In 2008 and 2009, Mylan raised the price by 5 percent. At the end of 2009 it tried out a 19 percent hike. The years 2010-2013 saw a succession of 10 percent price hikes.

It's nice to see that female CEOs have achieved equity in the all important metrics of paying themselves [expletive] tons of money and [expletive] people over with monopolistic abuses.
