TIL that the (((Sackler))) family who owned Purdue Pharma withdrew $10 billion from the company to avoid paying lawsuits when it was discovered they lied about the addictive properties of OxyContin (www.reuters.com)

The Sackler family are descendants of Isaac Sackler and his wife Sophie (née Greenberg), Jewish immigrants to the United States from Galicia (now Ukraine) and Poland

Even the wife was a Greenberg. And they complained about antisemitism of course
