        Clumsy analogy, because the real cost of the Vietnam war cannot be measured in purely American lives

        and #sacklerfamily gets richer and donate to blue chip charities and nothing to any programs to help their own victims. Shameful.

        Pay attention to what sort of country you are showing your youth. Major source of their despair = drug use!

        The opioid crisis is tragic & complex but symptomatic of a culture growing in hopelessness as source of Hope & purpose is dismissed #jesus

        It's more directly related to the failures of late-stage capitalism where millions live below poverty line and have absolutely no hope in US

        Understand your point but No govt/economic system can replace foundational need of people caring for one another -root issue is our hearts

        Economic and social justice would do far more to combat addiction and hopelessness than using a crutch of religion.

        Interesting how a culture on life support will speak of crutches We can't blame God for the condition of our hearts

        Concerned that there was no mention of protecting legit opioid users like myself who rely on them to relieve excruciating cancer pain.

        American homelessness has been an epidemic for decades AND the fed gov has done nothing about it while the rich get richer.

        If your sole source of information is the NYT you are only getting one side of a story. Many news worthy events the Times skips.
