        And by now, why should they? It's probably cheaper to cut out the middle man now that the addicts know what they need

        In World war 1 it was morphine for the soldiers who became addicted it was called soldiers disease. So 1898 Bayer comes up with heroin a non addictive alt to morphine. Time passes and we have oxy.. and even methadone like changing the name changes the outcome SMH no words...
