"to be honest with you that is the ONLY angle of the so-called "epidemic" that gives most people any interest in it at all."

As I posted to eyedigress, there is also all of the innocents like that little boy in the backseat of the two adults od'd to consider. There are a lot of lives affected by these overdoses, not just the individual.

My point is that the little kid in the back seat of the car isn’t a victim of a “drug epidemic.” He’s a victim of fouled-up parents/guardians. Spending time, energy and money to deal with the drug problem is a waste of time if the core of the problem — huge numbers of Americans who are spiritually dead — isn’t going to do a damn thing for the kid in the back seat.
