We as a society kind of do this all the time. We bail out the banks with billions, then let some poor people starve. Also in the general case, I'm quite surprised that people don't get fed up with the government acting against their interests.

Since it's a one time cure, I think the 1mio price was reasonable. At least compared to 10+ multiple day hospital visits. This was just the government fudging their negotiation.
