Martin Shkreli IS THE FREAKING WORST! The 38-year-old financial entrepreneur and pharmaceutical tycoon from Brooklyn was dubbed "the most hated man in America"  in 2015 for price gouging the prescription drug Daraprim by 5500% overnight depriving AIDS patients, people with cancer, and pregnant people of the life-saving medication. That same year, Shkreli purchased the Wu-Tang Clan's single copy of "Once Upon a Time in Shaolin" for 2 million dollars, AND THEN TALKED TRASH ABOUT WU -TANG EVERY CHANCE HE GOT. Prepare to get fired up, Fam!
