S. Fla Not Land Of Paradise

Suing Opioid tied drug firms may not work in the land of the unfree and home of the slaves. The Palm Beach Post has an article about how Palm Beach County may look to recoup money spent to combat addiction problems. Michelle Malkin explains this in her Book Culture Of Corruption. Corruptocrats and Capital Cronies who are all in bed with each other. She explains how Mr Fast And Furious Contempt Of Congress worked out  a sweetheart deal for Purdue Pharma in 2004 where the drug maker and one of the kings of the cartel didn't have to admit any wrongdoing. Oxycontin, the drug that is pure heroin in a pill form was apparently marketed as safe and effective even for minor pain.
   The state of West Virginia got hammered and destroyed by this Hill Billy heroin but unfortunately the Rico perps at the top will always find a way to protect the Rico perps at the bottom. The suit was a serious threat to the drug maker, however on the eve of going to trial they pled out to a 10 million dollar fine over a four year period. This money would go to various drug education programs in that dilapidated state filled up and fueled up with my Scots-Irish ancestors. The Opiate crisis has been ravaging this country for years, I was a hard core opiate junky myself. 10 million dollars is a pittance compared to the amount of money that these companies make and lets face it these people will never go to jail because they have so many influence peddlers in their back pocket, the politicians and the drug makers.
   The other conundrum is that a drug like Oxycontin is necessary for chronic pain patients especially cancer victims. Michelle Malkin went into great detail about the Chicago Mob crowd Blago-Refco scandals, UCMC- and not the Marine Corps but rather The University of Chicago Medical Center. She lays out some solid information about how the Democratic Party wasn't so kind hearted and benevolent after all. Valerie Jarret, she names  and was not that impressed with the appointment of Leon Panetta as cia intel man without having any real experience in National Security issues.
   The Bill (HB 477) that increases penalties for those caught selling fentanyl is a good one and makes a lot of sense. I have a strong mind and a weak back but I know people that not only have strong backs but also have strong minds as well and there are still not enough decent jobs down here. Minimum wage is insulting, their are many things wrong with the world that we currently reside in. That leaves addicts with very little choice but to what comes natural after getting sober and that is (helping others) But when many end up getting arrested for Patient Brokering for a law that is so ambiguous this sounds a bit too much like entrapment to me. Its good to know that the Task Force is cracking down but they need to go after the body snatchers and insurance fraud scam artists because they are the real criminals not the patient brokers. The only people that have been arrested thus far have been the sober home owners that received commission for referrals, this happens every day in the business world. It seems a bit too much like the Task Force is making some noise but is only going after the small fries and not the big fish. Addicts need to be placed in jobs and not thrown out on the street.
    Drug Users are lured to S. Fla then lost-(Sun Sentinel-6-26)  3 out of 4 people in private treatment are from out of state. What happens when their insurance runs out? They are kicked to the curb, is that fair for them? Many of these addicts are ending up out on the streets robbing and stealing to get their fix because that is what many active addicts do. So they are being enticed by the aggressive on line marketers to come down to the land of paradise to treat their addiction but then end up getting fueled up with dangerous phycotropics and then repudiated. Recovery Treatment should be more like an 18-24 month process with transitions that shouldn't be overwhelming for the addict to deal with. We need to be encouraged to only go through this process once, we shouldn't have Rober Barons and Racketeers that are going to be banking on our failures because that is when everybody loses.
