This same philosophy is at work at the EPA justifying further tightening of environmental regulations.
Does anyone care to guess how much this has infiltrated the FDA, DEA and law enforcement?
Of course it’s just “anecdotal” that folk diagnosed with “drug problems” come out of “rehab” with about eight or nine prescriptons.......

The kids were alright, but the bureaucrats and control freaks were on the verge of losing a cause that has earned them so much.
