    Addiction is a preexisting condition. Addiction treatment is an essential health benefit. Medicaid covers nearly 40% of adults with an opioid addiction. All of it is in the GOP’s crosshairs today.

        All driven by profits. Health care should not be for profit.

        People shouldn't judge when it comes to addiction -- and need for treatment. People need support......

        Big Pharma should be forced to contribute to treatment and education programs to fight against the opioid crisis.

        If kennedy really cared about treating addicts he'd spend .005% of the Kennedy billions to fund a clinic in Boston. But he won't spend his own money, he wants to spend mine.

        I’m sure the tax scam, giving 83% of the benefits to the top 1%, will help. 🙄🙄🙄

        And the cost to society at large of NOT treating these folks? Much, much higher.

        Mental illness is a preexisting condition. Mental illness is an essential health benefit. And as unpopular as this is going to be mental illness never was a choice, unlike choosing to drink or use drugs. Both are on the chopping block and both need saving.

        As a moderate democrat I disagree with that. I'm married and a father of two children. I work. I try to save money. Yet MY premiums go up because of these thieving, irresponsible heroin addicts. Diabetes, cancer, absolutely. But opiod addiction? Sorry, I'm not buying this.
