What specific parts of the opiod issue do you think a lower corporate tax rate will fix?
Update: found a nice heat map from NY Times; still the issue is there are no absolute numbers or the table that shows how the color gradient in the heat map progresses -- I get tall tales of year over year percentage increases but no absolute numbers to reference against. Is it really that hard to make a decent chart/graphic for this for a org like NYT?
Prescription opiates that lead to street drugs like heroin or illicitly-sourced ones after the prescription runs out, is my understanding. I don't know how the numbers break down in terms of initial exposure - how many bored desparate people were seeking a release, how many people got injured and then got hooked, etc...? But when we end up talking about drugs designed for 2,000lb elephants, it doesn't seem purely a problem of doctors/pharmacists, people are getting it from some unofficial sources.
