What started as an antitrust lawsuit brought by states over just two drugs in 2016 has exploded into an investigation of alleged price-fixing involving at least 16 companies and 300 drugs, Joseph Nielsen, an assistant attorney general and antitrust investigator in Connecticut who has been a leading force in the probe, said in an interview. His comments in an interview with The Washington Post represent the first public disclosure of the dramatically expanded scale of the investigation.

I'm on an Alex Gibney run. His show Dirty Money on Netflix is chilling. It prompted me to rewatch The Smartest Guys in the Room, his documentary about Enron, which actually gave me a stress nightmare that night.

At this point it's like, Price-fixing amongst drug makers? I'm shocked.
