Then why shouldn't giving you a raise be against the law also?

EDIT: I'm not defending the guy or the drug industry necessarily, just asking how you'd craft a law that makes drug prices "fair" but also isn't incredibly arbitrary.

Because giving someone a raise generally isn't a case of withholding lifesaving treatment from people who have no other options.
