        These lawsuits will take years to wind through the courts while people die. Good start but changing Congress will be quicker.

        They don’t realize they are hurting the real people who have severe pain! The rest will go to meth or something else . They are messed up.

        Weird how nobody is going after the Drs who are giving them access to these drugs and without prescriptions there would be no problems

        Because the doctors are shoving pills down people's throats? Why is it the doctor's fault? Isn't the gas station attendants fault when they sold someone liquor and they died from overdose? Or they drank and drove and killed somebody?
