What will happen is those in end of life of pain will be denied a peaceful departure.
Younger addicts will still get their fix, one way or another.
Yes, courtesy of our southern border and our leftist jerks. We know a family whose young SIL is addicted because he is stupid. He's got a wife and two kids and he keeps going into rehab and starts again.
One day he came home from work at lunch time and frantically tore up the house while his MIL was watching the kids. Freaked her and the kids out big time. Needed a fix and was hoping he could find an old stash.
Meanwhile, people who need medication will be undergoing major monitoring. I know someone who had a major painful procedure. The doc said he could only give him one week of pills.
