    The thing is that he’s blind to his own upcoming demise.

    He’s not dying of boneitis right now, so he can make a profit and use his money to do something about it when it actually becomes an issue, but in the end, when that happens he’s too late. And to top it all off he curses the boneitis instead of his own mistake of destroying the company making the cure.

    It’s similar to how capitalists will likely react when their homes and lives are destroyed by the byproduct of climate change - it will be the weather’s fault, not theirs for choosing profits over fixing the issue.
