Blah, blah, blah. All BULL. Here you go:
In the last 18 years alone since 1999, opioid deaths are up ALMOST 600%. It has all but doubled in the last 5 years alone. Regardless of how much B.S. interference you want to run, it's a new problem based on an entirely new form of modern day, responsibility lacking, abusing idiot, who wants to get high. The math doesn't lie. Nor do the bodies piling up in the morgue. Only the people who make all the excuses for them.

And the numbers on that chart might continue to rise until the saturation point of about 10% of the population is reached. No argument from me. A huge percent of the "modern" generation is obnoxious and dumber than a bucket of snot. Most have been told to steer clear of addictive drugs. A great many will "experiment" and among those, some of them will not stop there. No matter how you slice it, the non-addicted part of society pays the penalties of those who are addicted.
Me and you can sit around the campfire, hold hands, sing Kumbaya and preach about how bad drugs are and how the world should not take them but, guess what? Some of those people are still going to experiment and some of them will have a genetic pre-dispostion that makes it nearly impossible to stop. -And the reason they're dropping like flies now, is because of Fentanyl and Carfentanyl. Big Pharma invented Fentanyl and Carfentanyl that is over 5000 times more powerful and addictive than heroin. One piece of carfentanyl the size of a grain of sand will kill you.
China is getting their revenge now and are smuggling it across the borders. Mexico is mixing it in cocaine because it reduces their growing and harvesting expenses. Terrorists love the stuff because it's profitable and it's killing-off our population. -And people everywhere in the world are going to seek it out because it's an escape from reality and they crave it -even though it might kill them. -That is the fundamental definition of an addiction. We need to learn how to treat addiction. Yes, staying away from drugs all-together is ideal. History has shown, that does not work!
So, BULL, BULL and more BULL. You can preach all you want about how you should not do it but, that method will only lead to your very own chart reaching the saturation point. Stop the BS and work toward learning how to treat addiction either as a preventative or after-the-fact.
