    I knew it was bad in the US. I did not know it is THAT bad.

    Lots of profits to protect. The lobbying must be intense. Total shitshow.

      The lobbying must be intense.

      The Sackler family, the shitbags most directly responsible for the opioid epidemic in the US, were handed a sweetheart settlement deal where they had to hand over a small percentage of their multi-billion dollar fortunes and in return they were SHIELDED FROM PROSECUTION on any related charges or civil suits.

      Luckily even our shitbag Supreme Court could see what utter scumfuck horseshit that was and tossed the deal out the window and into a garbage bin where it belonged.
