        Going after the street level pushers is fine, but that's not the real source

        What about the Drs that prescribed the opioids in the first place?

        Or how about the lawmakers that were lax on regulations for this situation to grow and fester. The state government doesn't have clean hands in this.

        Makes sense since Walgreen's and CVS writes so many of the prescriptions.

        Who is writing the prescriptions? This is a frivolous lawsuit directed at the wrong people. I hope it is thrown out of court with a laugh.

        No, it is up to the pharmacies to keep track of how much medications are going to the patients. They are the last line of defense. They are also supposed to report doctors who are over prescribing.
