Idiots Among Us
I will be sharing these idiots on an almost daily basis, so many to share.

Scuzzbucket of the Month
Update 9/23/2013: Hackers release phone number and address of this scuzzbucket
2) He says he's dropping the price of the drug.
This is what a conniving, evil little son of a bitch looks like
Martin Shkreli is a Albanian American hedge fund manager and entrepreneur, specializing in healthcare businesses and is a co-founder of MSMB Capital Management, of Retrophin, and the founder of Turing Pharmaceuticals .
The former hedge fund manager purchased the rights to a drug that's been used for 62 years to treat parasitic infections, and hiked the price from around $13.50 per tablet to $750 per tablet.
The drug is called Daraprim ,and it is used primarily to treat infants and people who have weakened immune systems — most notably those who have AIDS. It's among the most common treatments for life-threatening parasitic infections.
Shkreli tweeted "Every time a drug goes generic I grieve. Let us not mourn the dearly departed, instead celebrate the profits and new assets it brought us"
Shkreli oversaw Retrophin until last fall, Retrophin alleges that he created the biotech and took it public solely to provide stock to MSMB investors when the hedge fund became insolvent.

Refugees
Photo: Paolo Pellegrin, for The New York Times
I wanted to share this photo because it touched my heart. Each face portraying what the Syrian refugees are struggling with.
These people have been through so much in the past four years.
I'm amazed at their bravery, living through the horrific humanitarian disaster that has been simmering since 2011, involving an influx of "sectarians"(ie terrorists), that evil Assad, a man with no soul and a world that basically turned the other way.
The father in this picture makes me wonder about his life. How it became altered by the craziness in Syria, crazy enough to grab his two small children and run for their lives. Where is their mother? Are there other children? The baby in his arms must be hungry, scared, sick. I just want to comfort him. And the little girl with the heart on her shirt. What stories will she tell in the future.
Please send up good thoughts and prayers for these three and ALL of the people who are refugees. Imagine yourselves in their place.
