Your opinion seems to be that since some people have gotten addicted that nobody should have access to the med.

Not at all. My opinion is that the JBT's should get there sorry asses out of doctor's offices. They can take their unConstitutional WoSD's and shove it.

I was responding to your wholly unsympathetic opinion that someone who becomes addicted to a drug after seeking pain relief from a doctor, then makes poor decisions in regards to that addiction, is somehow responsible for your doctor's actions.

It's quite the opposite. Doctors tailor their treatment of patients in response to government harrassment by Drug Warriors. Patients who become addicted find their doctors unsympathetic and in denial about the whole situation because the doc's are paranoid about criminal charges. Doc's are so paranoid they cut back or refuse to give pain meds to those who need them.

People like you exacerbate the problem by putting the blame on those at the end of the line of causality. The patient. The patients are subject to the doctor's actions and the doctors are practicing medicine to please government bureaucrats with budgets to justify and Congresscritters are setting those budgets and passing the laws in order to get votes from you.

This is what medicine will be the more it becomes accountable to government. Every decision approved by bureaucrats.
