Maybe it has something to do with the fact that pharmaceutical companies are profit driven and large swaths of the country have been impacted by pill addictions.

Trust the science- the pharmaceutical industry pushed the idea that Oxy is a less addictive than morphine. State medical boards across the country put their thumbs in their pockets.

But wait there's more! The whole concept of selling SSRIs to people based on another lie that they have a "chemical imbalance" when exercise has proven to be more beneficial.

What else? Oh, mass prescribing stimulants to children.
