I'm not sure what is a non-greedy price for a drug that cancer patients need to survive.  At some point it should be affordable for the majority of people.  

The polio vaccine was free.

I am sure that drug companies have played fast and loose with the rules to keep raising prices on drugs with little concern about it.  It affects all of us as insurance companies raise rates to keep up.  One hand feeding the other, I guess.

Although now that there was enough pushback they are lowering them some.
