The Opioid Crisis Is Much Worse Than You Think
Added 2021-11-24 23:43:57 +0000 UTCYou've probably already heard about Purdue and the Sackler family, and the opioid epidemic they created. But what do you know about the underlying structures that enabled the crisis in the first place? This week we're talking about the opioid epidemic and the role capitalism and imperialism play in this ongoing crisis. Sorry for the long wait on this one! Computer trouble. Hope you enjoy!

Hi Second Thought, thanks for take the time and hard effort to write a piece touching on my recommended topic. You expanded my question of a "legalize all society" and guided me to the root cause on many of the drug related problems we see today. Additionally, the connection to the capitalist drug at the end was a real nice touch!
2021-11-29 18:08:06 +0000 UTCto be a bit off topic...would you consider making a work outlining what the small man and woman can do to improve their lives ? I would suggest : send TV equipment to recycling ......also adopt veganism: to sustain oneself on substances that were not once able to experience suffering , will help in many ways-----

2021-11-27 09:22:14 +0000 UTCOver the past twenty years I have watched 6 friends put in the ground due to H. 8 if you include byproducts. I'm handicapped and although I've never tried H, I've had rxs post op so I understand a bit. I now tell my doc that I won't go beyond the synthetic one. Pain sucks. There's no easy answer. Needle exchanges need more attention.
