        Why not use a common sense approach? Open supervised consumption sites. That way they could save lives and money.

        Perhaps to some degree... albeit addiction needs to be treated correctly which (usually) requires the use of public funds

        I’m fine with that. But personally responsibility seems in short supply these days. Not just in drug addiction. I believe that’s half the problem. Everyone is a victim, no fault of their own. Which is rarely the case, and very unhealthy to society as a whole.

        Better controls need to be put on the pharmaceutical companies. They sent out more than this one town could ever take. If a doctor is writing prescriptions excessively they should be checked too.

        Ya that’s why there’s an opioid epidemic, because 93% of Americans got a tax cut!
