In a perfect and sane world the USA could make All drugs Like morphine, fentanyl free. This would end drug cartel problem and the “war on drugs” funds could be used to treat the disease. It would also reduce the use because there would be no street level pushers. Lastly govt controlled dispensation not only Eliminates death by contamination and over dose but also reduces need for all kinds of crimes to pay for the addiction.

Thank you, Diane. Since the super-rich and corporations have sucked ALL THE MONEY out of America, there is none left to pay for public services such as police. Pay peanuts, you get monkeys. We need to PAY for quality, training and supervision. Police Unions blackmail cities every day. That must end.
