Guess whose Administration started the opioid crack-down. Crisis-mongering and meat-ax responses have consequences.

This was in the local new this week:

With Medicare government is already up to its eyeballs in "the doctor-patient relationship" and has been since it started.

It's really funny how it's okay with the primitives that the government tell a bakery which customers to serve, but it's not okay that the government tell physicians which drugs they may prescribe.

Until the primitives get consistent, they're worth only laughing at, not taking seriously.  Ninnies.

DU-folk wouldn't and don't recognize Principled Consistency when it slaps them around. Their "principle" can be summed up in two letters: M E.

Is reality a Big Pharma Shill?

Millions now living should have died. Anti-Covid-Vaxxer ghouls hardest hit.

Well friend, if some asshole wants to dig through used cat litter and take pills he/she/it finds in there, they get what they deserve.

Unrelated, but funny: Long ago, I had a CSM who was the president of the EIB board.  He stated publically that if a candidate keistered a GPS device (this is back when they were still big and boxy) and pooped it out on the course, they could use it.

The Government's crackdown on the prescribed opioid problem leads directly the heronine/fentanyl problem we have today. This is a prime example of people not entirely thinking through a solution before implementing it. The issue was analyzed in haste and the response was made based on feelings. Never base a judgment on how you feel about something at the moment.
