Nothing like standing on the tracks watching the light of the train coming knowing what it is but not thinking to get out of the way.
This drug epidemic is getting ridiculous, and given how far flung it is the fact this country can't do more than wring its hands at it is frustrating. We need to go back to basics - drug use plunged in the 80s with Nancy Reagan's "Just say no" campaign. It was so simple it was a target for ridicule, but it stuck with kids and worked. Clinton comes in saying he "didn't inhale" while laughing about it, the anti-drug messages largely dried up, and drug use (according to government statistics at the time) tripled within 2 years of him taking office. So the powers that be need to look at EVERYTHING that changed in those two years to cause that spike and start finding ways to address it to put a lid on this problem that's negatively affecting almost everyone in the country at this point, either because they're addicted, have a loved one who is (or was and died from it), or have been a victim in some way of an addict.
