Yeah. But why sell one solution to a sickness when you can sell 10 and have them addictive so the person has to take them even when they've recovered?

I suppose

'Murica is so cucked. I mean in Denmark atleast it's just our incompetent politicians who are like "nah weed is bad" not because big pharma pays them off (I think).

I went to the doctor for depression. They prescribed me 2 antidepressants. One of which is a narcotic with known addictive qualities.

Anyone here play Hearts of Iron 4

Yeah, America is quite cucked

My mom went in for depression and was suddenly diagnosed with ADHD and PTSD.

She's 56

They prescribed her 4 medications.

Yeah, that is what they do

2 of which are known to be addictive.

And you know what happens to people addicted to narcotics who can no longer afford it from a provider? They move to heroin.

America shoves pills in our mouths, makes us addicted, and then punishes us for being addicted.

Heh, in Denmark the doctors are actually a bit stingy with what they describe, sometimes you kinda have to push them when you come in.

And it's only going to get worse with the Trump administration.

I wonder (((who))) is trying to do this

It's not a who it's a what. And the what is companies.

Pretty much the entire history of the US is steeped in corporate lobbying preventing progress.

I still do not understand how the fuck you people tolerate lobbying

@August If you didn't know, we are actively being worked against

I don't understand how the rest of the world hasn't called you out on it

Hell, we outlawed lead based paint 50 years after the rest of the world did.

wat.

We recently repealed a law preventing dumping coal in rivers.

..

Dumping radioactive waste in rivers is still legal tho right?

I'm starting to think America was doomed from the start

We're doomed lest we continue to allow companies to influence laws and political decisions.

Did you guys know niggardly is a word?

Niggard is a ward

You fucking niggard

soz

What does that mean?

It's a synonym for greedy

A stingy person

A niggard is a stingy person

I feel like that's racist.

So you could say Jews are very niggardly?

I looked up synonyms for greedy because I wasn't sure if stingy was the right word to use in my above message

Yes
