    An opioid addicted baby is now born every half hour. The Sackler family has made billions on the opioid crisis.http://nyer.cm/jIWGDkF

        @NewYorker, be careful with stigmatizing language in this crisis. Babies can be born dependent on opioids (i.e., experience tolerance, withdrawal) but not addicted (a syndrome of loss of control, escalation of use, persistent use despite negative consequences).

        This is the first time I've heard some of these things. Again I ask, for the wealthy are their current riches ever enough?

        Too much wealth isn't the problem. There are people in all levels of income that have bad character. By blaming all the rich people is just jealousy. Be better than that.

        You have a decent point that not all rich people are like this. That's fair. However, I can't think of anything else besides greed for greater wealth that motivated this family. Their lust for "legacy" costs lives

        Are you implying that Obama did anything at all to stop the opioid epidemic while he was in charge?

        Yes, Obama did something. He leveled the sales volume for opioids down to 4 billion $ a year. It was exceeding that before. So, in fact he ordered a reduction to cool the market slowly down. Get the facts, ask Google.

        How sickening to make one's wealth on creating drug addicts, some of whom paid the price with their lives and no matter how many charities they donated to or how many buildings their names are on, it doesn't change the facts.

        Did you miss the part where they lied about the drug? Fabricated studies? Paid off people at the FDA?

        The Sackler family should be donating billions to opioid treatment resources, or may their family face the karmic wrath of the universe.
