Today Purdue's Chairman plead guilty to 3 felonies. $5.5B in penalties, most never to be collected due to bankruptcy. Sacklers NOT criminally charged. Purdue made $30 billion on OxyContin. 450,000 dead of overdose (twice the Covid toll). 2 dozen AGs object to settlement. Justice?

We're not done, #Georgia... Having a new President without ALSO having the Senate is like having a Lamborghini sitting in the driveway without the keys. ๐Ÿšจ @ossoff ๐Ÿ‘ ๐Ÿšจ @ReverendWarnock ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ‘ ๐Ÿšจ #GeorgiaRunoffs ๐Ÿšจ #LetsGo

It's a start, like one baby step past the starting line, but there is still so much left. Oxycodone by itself isn't the real problem, it's the pushers and shoppers. The DEA still hasn't cracked down hard enough on pill mills.

All this occurred under Obama. Along with the high insurance rates and medical staff contributing to be the third leasing cause of death in the US.
