One person went to jail for the global financial crisis. Keep that in mind when judging Shkreli, who made everyone whole.

Anyone go to jail at Equifax? Most definitely not, and that’s upended the credit system.

That's my point. Individuals committing fraud, few or not people hurt and they throw the book at you and take all your stuff. Whereas these big corporate wrong doings that have very negatively impacted people's lives pretty much get a yawn.

Has it actually upended the credit system yet?

I wouldn't put it past the credit industry to find a way to profit at further cost to consumers.
