“Unless you kill all the humans, which is basically where your logic must necessarily lead, had you thought it through at all.”
You may want to read post 4 where I state that culture and self-control are both a large part of the opioid epidemic.
Each of us can take measures to teach ourselves and our children self-control in many areas we can modify our culture so that our children and other people’s children do not turn to opioids.
You may say “self control” but everything about your approach SCREAMS “control others”.
If you actually want to fight this problem for real? The correct targets are the pharma industry and the legislators they bribe.
38% of adult Americans have an opoid prescription! THAT is the culture that needs to change. Street drugs will always exist, always have, but what is new is the government pushing these things on the population en masse.
