A lot of those "junkies" started off as normal people with pain, who were targeted by perdue, until they became heavily addicted to opiods and eventually turned to heroin or fentanyl.

We, as a society, as responsible for this situation, because we allowed a company to turn hundreds of thousands of people into drug addicts, and let all of the company executives walk away without any repercussions.

We have two options, both of which are bottomless pits:

1. Do nothing, and pay the costs associated with drug addicts being left untreated (shelters, prisons, run down portions of cities, lowered property values) 2. Treat people

One of those options may cost a lot, but it also improves everyone's lives. I don't understand why this choice is so hard for some folks.
