When you take a pill for the pain you have be a bit naive to think something that takes away that level of pain isn't addicting. Stop being useful idiots. You took the pill for the pain. You got addicted. No one made you take it. Don't take the pill and suffer. And don't be dumb from now on and claim you didnt know it was addicting.

The elderly with collapsing spines, veterans who lost limbs and survived IEDs. Survivors of all ages, sizes, races, socio-economic status, all over the nation. Along with doctors, academics, reporters, researchers, nurses. Even three former U.S. Drug Czars! WE have paid the price for the current War on Drugs, not the street dealers, not the cartels. Because the BigLaw mass-tort industry cannot collect settlements from Sinaloa or any of the many para-military cartels you report on, the government had to be seen doing something. So they pretended that the cause of all drug use is from doctors and sick patients. The result? Prescribing has dropped under DEA threatening doctors offices, even oncologists(!), while the OD death rate has skyrocketed. Now studies prove that less than 1% of ODs even had any prescription, period. The taxpaying responsible law-abiding but injured or sick citizen has been the target, because the DEA would rather sit in their offices fiddling around with spreadsheets than get their butts in the streets and fight criminals, because doctors and people on walkers and with cancer don't shoot back when they bust the door down and seize medical records. Leave it to the government to create two problems out of one: now untreated pain is causing suicides, disability from formerly working people, it is leaving very sick people with no medical care at all because doctors are too afraid to even treat patients with painful conditions. This is suffering on a medieval scale. Since the technological capacity to create laboratory drugs is never going away in this century, maybe it is time to stop Prohibition and focus on risk mitigation and just saving lives, as countries like Portugal have done with great success. And leave sick, dying injured people alone to cope with the remainder of their lives the best way they can, with dignity and not punishment, with medical care instead of threats from the DEA.palmettobughttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17690280615092194542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5195137745759962560.post-10226702161336189562019-11-03T20:49:28.515-07:002019-11-03T20:49:28.515-07:00The dealer will be at your next family reunion and...The dealer will be at your next family reunion and pushing drugs to your kids and loved ones then .Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5195137745759962560.post-75432208099086818522019-11-03T20:05:57.048-07:002019-11-03T20:05:57.048-07:00Interesting that you don’t post all comments.

Lil P's like Mac Miller fans think drugs are cool. That is literally all the experience that they have. Twenty year old kids with no frickin knowledge. Polluting the minds of other young kids. Then those Lil girls can't handle their drugs. Overdose and get the whole world going. Have you seen a lil peep video? First thing he did is throw the fact he did pills in your face. Lil youngsters like that can't keep their stuff on the DL. Only an idiot would sell those loud kids pills. Never once heard Tom Petty sing about drug use. Or put it out there as much as rappers these days. <br />El Smarto.

This is what destroyed the rural agrarian economy of the sierra. small farmers could no longer sell or barter their surplus corn crop for anything. Of course they had an inclination to shift into mota and poppies. <br /><br />the real horror story is what the british did to china. by the time mao took over, he had to rehabilitate over 10 million addicts. he did that with compassion, benevolence, and understanding; so long as the addicts snitched out their dealers. forget about any equanimity and human rights, the dealers got a bullet crashed through their amygdula oblangata. and they still do. <br /><br />the chinese whipped opium and got rid of it. that's when it moved south into the golden triangle. and that's when some gringo spooks got involved. <br /><br />the real story is the chinese involvement in fentanyl. the chinese could care less about mexico; the goal is a broken and destitute america. they know first hand how opiates can destroy a nation. the real question is who is dealing the fentanyl. is it: a) the triad, or b) just enterprising chinese businessmen, or c) an element within the communist party of the people's republic itself?
