“The moral test of a government is how it treats those who are at the dawn of life, the children; those who are in the twilight of life, the aged; and those who are in the shadow of life, the sick and the needy, and the handicapped.” – Hubert Humphrey

What I dont understand is, that if pain medication is being blamed for the over rated opioid crisis by surgeons prescribing after surgery to their patients, then why are there so many unused perscriptions just setting around in thier medicine cabinets to be stolen or diverted to the wrong hands? If ppl can become addicted after 3 days of taking them, then how can they have some left-over? Hmm…anyone have an answer?
The people behind the hysteria are venal lying idiots? Just my theory.
Excellent! Bravo Dr Kline!
