FOLLOW THE STABLE GREEN LINE WHICH IS DOCTOR PRESCRIBED OPIOIDS. IT NEVER WAS A DOCTOR PRESCRIBED OPIOID CRISIS!
IT WAS ALWAYS AN ILLEGAL HEROIN & ILLEGAL FENTANYL FLOODING OF THE USA BY CHINA AND MEXICO.
THEY KNEW BACK IN 2009, that 78% of OxyContin abusers never received a Doctor's prescription for them and had purchased them illegally on the black market, as counterfeits.
Meanwhile, like a broken record, policymakers are intent on further reducing opioid prescriptions, as if that will do anything other than exacerbate matters. Forcing Chronic Pain Patients to live in HeII, buy them illegally or commit suicide. And Physicians are leaving their practice or dropping patients.
Many dealers use pill presses to make counterfeit OxyContin or Vicodin pills and trick non-medical users into thinking they are buying the real thing.
Thatâs how Prince died. The singer/songwriter abused Vicodin. Records show he never got prescriptions from doctors.
He died from ingesting counterfeit Vicodin pills he obtained on the black market that turned out to be fentanyl.
Policymakers & the main stream media remain fixated on the false narrative that the overdose crisis is the result of doctors over-prescribing opioids to their patients in pain.
Princeâs tragic death actually typifies what is really happening.
Yet their behavior played into the false narrative to which misguided policymakers stubbornly & illogically cling to.
The prescription cut-down has made many pain patients suffer needlessly and cruelly. Some have turned to suicide. Others access the black market for substitutes like heroin or fentanyl.
Meanwhile, like a broken record, policymakers are intent on further reducing opioid prescriptions, as if that will do anything other than exacerbate matters. Forcing Chronic Pain Patients to live in Hell, buy them illegally or commit suicide. And Physicians are leaving their practice or dropping patients.
Columbia University researchers last month found evidence that the present restrictive opioid policy is not lowering overdose rates, but merely pushing non-medical users to more dangerous drugs, making patients suffer in the process. This comes after two earlier studies came to similar conclusions.
Doctors and patients are the wrong targets. When will the insanity end?

Fabricated Tech Bubble Created for profit, Fabricated Housing Bubble created for profit & NOW a Fabricated RX Opioid crisis Created and Perpetuated for Profit.
Just imagine the "Kick Backs" in the form of Campaign Contributions, PACS and the $$$ Amount to the politicians, & why they won't or have any desire to fix it.
FACT: The harder it becomes to get RX Opioids, the more people flock to illegal heroin and illegal fentanyl.
FACT: To build a demand for a product, restrict it's supply
FACT: Itâs now indisputable that most recent opioid deaths result from illegal heroin/fentanyl, not physician prescribed pain pills.
But The DEA & SAMHSA (The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration) Give âCarte Blancheâ & âWaivers to prescribe higher doses/limits of controlled substancesâ to Providers that prescribe âAddiction Therapy Drugsâ that are more addictive, controlled substances, tagged the âlifetime therapy drugâ, more severe withdrawal symptoms, more side effects and more expensive!
Call it what it really is!
STOP the Lies!
It is and always was an illegal heroin and illegal fentanyl flooding of the USA.
Not a Doctor prescribed opioid epidemic!
Follow the money, who is profits by restricting Doctors from prescribing pain meds to their patients with chronic pain!
Nothing sinister to see here folksâŚ
-Despite frequent robberies and burglaries of pharmacies, doctors' offices, and warehouses where prescription medications are stored and sold, the DEA has focused a troubling amount of time and resources on the prescriptions issued by practicing physicians. It's easy to see why. Doctors keep records. They pay taxes. They take notes. They're an easier target than common drug dealers. Doctors don't shoot back and Doctors also often aren't aware of asset forfeiture laws.
-A physician's considerable assets can be divided up among the various law enforcement agencies investigating him before he's ever brought to trial.
-Over the last several years, hundreds of physicians have been put on trial for charges ranging from health insurance fraud to drug distribution, even to manslaughter and murder for over-prescribing prescription narcotics. Many times, investigators seize a doctor's house, office, and bank account, leaving him no resources with which to defend himself.
-Even if criminal charges are never filed a police dept can still bring a civil action against a suspected medical professional to recover the cost of an investigation.

-Addiction Drug Therapy buprenorphine $115.00 per week or $5,980.00 per year. Suboxone sells for $560 at CVS and $553 at Target for a 30-day supply, according to GoodRx.

Where is the war on "-Unintentional fall deaths: 34,673"
Where is the war on STDs " STD related bacteria that are resistant to antibiotics, and at least 23,000 people die each year as a direct result of those infectionsâ-CDC 2013
Where is the War on Alcoholic liver disease? Alcoholic liver disease deaths: 21,815
Why the Continued War on Chronic Pain Patients and Their Doctors when Physician Prescribed Opioids deaths: 17,029 (could even be lower )Per CDCâŚ
Because it is an estimated Multi-Billion Profit ScamâŚfunded mostly by the tax payers.
Would it surprise you to know that the market for the addiction recovery industry is well in excess of $35 billion a year?
That is a 44% increase since 2009. By 2020, spending in estimated to reach $42 billion, representing a jump of another 20%. (my opinion, total profits from the fabricated profit created opioid scam is over $100 BillionâŚorgan harvest add more)
How much money can be made on a single patient?
-Professional intervention â $2500, plus expenses
-Residential drug detox â at least $500 per day, lasting anywhere from 3 to 14 days
-Inpatient drug rehab â between $6000 and $32,000, depending upon location and amenities. In fact high-end, âluxuryâ rehabs can cost over $100,000 for a 30-day stay.
-Intensive outpatient programs â up to $10,000 per month
-Partial hospitalization programs â between $350 and $450 per day
-Sober living facilities â up to $2500 per month
-Once-monthly administrations of Vivitrol â up to $1200 per injection
-Sober coaches â up to $1900 per day, plus expenses and travel, usually with a five-day minimum
In addition to âaddiction therapy Drugsâ, is the multi-Billion Frequent Drug Testing Industry with an absurd failure rate. Etc
End the War on Chronic Pain Patients and their PhysiciansâŚThis was never the cause of the fake RX prescribed opioid crisis for profit.
We all know that it was illegal heroin & fentanyl brought in from Mexico and China by the Obama administration.

Besides all the other obvious child porn, pedophilia, child abuses, trafficking, possible crimes, etc. on her social media sites.
So why hasn't the DEA seized George Soros' and accomplices assets, homes, financial accounts, computers, etc. etc. since he is arranging the caravans of illegals crossing the USA border with illegal drugs, etc. in addition to other massive possible crimes?

PSâŚAnother one of the many consequences of this insane witch hunt on chronic pain patients and their Doctors. Besides the rise of chronic pain patients committing suicide.
Physicians are leaving their practice because of this insanity and others in Pre-Med are switching their careers. Lack of future doctors.
Prohibition never worksâŚeven for big pharma profits, rehab center profits, drug testing profits, kick backs to politicians in forms of campaign contributions.
Awwww, you come across a butt-hurt as a libatard.

And still have them prosecuted for either treason, collusion, etc. etc. No deals, No exceptionsâŚNo Excuses!

Marco Rubioâs and Susan Collinsâ bill to seize your guns is up for a hearing THIS MORNING in the Senate Judiciary Committee and I need your immediate action.
With members of BOTH parties in Congress clamoring for a gun control âdeal,â Iâm afraid Senator Lindsey Grahamâs (202-224-5972) Committee could vote to make so-called âRed Flagâ Gun Confiscation Orders a reality.
If the anti-gun statists arenât stopped before itâs too late, you and I could be steamrolled by this blatantly UNCONSTITUTIONAL scheme â which will effectively hand government agents the power to seize our firearms any time they want.
The good news is, you and I can derail their plan by deluging Judiciary Committee members with phone calls before the hearing kicks off a round of horse trading where Senators swap support for their favorite infringements on our Second Amendment rights.
Campaign for Liberty has identified several key members of the Senate Judiciary Committee whose opposition to this scheme could be crucial to derailing the gun-grabbersâ momentum.

New Laws Force Drug Users Into Rehab Against Their Will~2017 And will effect your gun ownership!
Meanwhile, detaining a person who has committed no crime based on what they might do in the future has potentially severe long-term repercussions.
âInvoluntary commitment gives someone a lifelong marker that interferes with their ability to get health care coverage or own a firearm, and it could prevent them from getting certain jobs, like federal employment,â said Mary Catherine Roper, of the the American Civil Liberties Union of Pennsylvania.
Once a civil commitment is on a personâs record, Roper says, itâs nearly impossible to get it expunged.
Her only âcrime,â she says, was having a bad reaction to her doctor-prescribed opioid medication.
Hicks claims she had been placed in five-point restraints and âforcibly and unwillingly subjected to the use of strong anti-psychotic medicationsâ
According to the National Alliance for Model State Drug Laws, 37 states already have statutes that allow substance abusers who have not committed a crime to be briefly detained against their will.

Report: Nearly half of combat veterans complain of chronic pain
Nearly half of a group of infantry soldiers who had seen combat in Afghanistan have reported experiencing chronic pain and 15 percent said they recently used opioid pain relievers, according to a study released Monday.
Of 2,597 active-duty Army troops surveyed three months after their redeployment, 44 percent said they experienced recurring or unceasing pain after returning from Afghanistan, according to the study, published in the Journal of the American Medical Association Internal Medicine.
The number of soldiers affected by chronic pain was a surprise to researchers, said Robin L. Toblin, the lead author of the study, one of the first to quantify the impact of recent wars on the prevalence of pain and narcotic use among soldiers.
âWar is really hard on the body,â said, Toblin, who is affiliated with the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research.
But she said that researchers didnât expect that nearly half of young, otherwise healthy men who were not seeking medical treatment would suffer from chronic pain.
The percentage was far higher than an estimated 26 percent of chronic pain sufferers in a Kansas study of civilians ages 18 to 65. In that study, which looked at a group comparable to the soldiers â men aged 18 to 34 â only 15 percent reported chronic pain, Tobin said.
Chronic pain is defined as pain that continues beyond the normal time expected for healing or that accompanying chronic conditions like arthritis. It is associated with the onset of changes in the central nervous system that may adversely affect well-being, cognition, level of function and quality of life, according to the Defense Departmentâs Pain Management Task Force.
Opioids, whose pharmacological effects resemble morphine or other opiates, are strong medicines that can relieve pain caused by serious injuries.
Of the chronic pain sufferers, 48.3 percent reported pain duration of a year or longer. More than half â 55.6 percent reported nearly daily or a constant frequency of pain. About half â 51.2 percent â reported moderate to severe pain.
The survey did not ask for the location of the pain, Tolbin said.
The troopsâ reported use of opioid pain relievers â 15.1 percent of all surveyed troops and 23 percent of those with chronic pain â was also far higher than the estimated civilian use of 4 percent. But that finding was less of a surprise, she Toblin said.
â Itâs consistent Army-wide,â she said. About a quarter of soldiers use opioids within a given year, she said.
The findings âsuggest a large unmet need for assessment, management and treatment of chronic pain and related opioid use and misuse in military personnel after combat deployments,â the study authors note.
In commentary accompanying the study, Lt. Col. Dr. Wayne B. Jonas, and Lt. Gen. Eric B. Schoomaker, both retired, said that the study raised concerns.
âThe nationâs defense rests on the comprehensive fitness of its service members â mind, body and spirit. Chronic pain and use of opioids carry the risk of functional impairment of Americaâs fighting force,â they wrote.
According to a 2010 report by DODâs Pain Management Task Force, âPain is a disease state of the nervous system and deserves the same management attention given to any other disease states,â according to a 2010 task force report.
But pain management is a special challenge in military settings, the report said.â
âThe transient nature of the military population, including both patients and providers, creates extraordinary challenges to providing continuity of care, something very important to pain management.â
Data for the JAMA study were collected in 2011 from an infantry brigade redeployed from Afghanistan, and most of the 2,597 survey participants were men, 18 to 24 years old, high school-educated, married and of junior enlisted rank. Nearly half - 45.4 percent - reported combat injuries.

Andrew Kolodny has absolutely no evidence, no documentation, no proof that ââThereâs increasing evidence that opioids are neither safe nor effective for the majority of people with non-cancer pain.â Nor is he licensed to even treat pain patients, cancer patients or board certified for pain management.
CDCâs conclusions are predicated on dubiously collected and false data, that defies math & logicâŚand took years to agree their data was significantly over-inflated by halfâŚand there is still no proof that even those numbers are correct. Dr.s are not signing these death certificates, no autopsies performed or very few, other causes of death put down to spare families of intended suicidesâŚbut let's blame opioids with no substantial proof.
The one thing NIDA got right is that many people do turn to the streets because they can't get relief, but whose fault is that really?

VA Tries to Confiscate Disabled Vetâs Guns, Stopped by Citizens and Sheriff Standing Guard
President Obama has said time and again that his greatest disappointment was that he was unable to enact new gun control legislation to further restrict the right of American citizens to keep and bear arms. In an effort to do an end run around Congress and enact some of that legislation, the Obama administration enacted some new policies that would make it impossible for some disabled vets to purchase guns and might even lead to their existing firearms being confiscated. That very nightmare scenario â the VA forcibly confiscating the firearms of a disabled veteran â almost happened in Idaho yesterday, but the VA was stopped in its tracks by a grassroots group of local residents.

The fake Doctor prescribed Opioid crisisâŚ
Report: Nearly half of combat veterans complain of chronic pain
Nearly half of a group of infantry soldiers who had seen combat in Afghanistan have reported experiencing chronic pain and 15 percent said they recently used opioid pain relievers, according to a study released Monday.

Floridaâs red flag law did not prevent the August 26, 2018, Jacksonville Landing shooting (three innocents killed) or the January 23, 2019, the SunTrust Bank shooting (five innocents killed).
Californiaâs Red Flag Law did not prevent the November 7, 2018, Borderline Bar & Grill attack (12 innocents killed).
Illinoisâs Red Flag Law did not prevent the February 15, 2019, Henry Pratt Company Shooting (five innocents killed).

ExactlyâŚhe is a traitor and other so called "republican" that votes for this bill.
Floridaâs red flag law did not prevent the August 26, 2018, Jacksonville Landing shooting (three innocents killed) or the January 23, 2019, the SunTrust Bank shooting (five innocents killed).
Californiaâs Red Flag Law did not prevent the November 7, 2018, Borderline Bar & Grill attack (12 innocents killed).
Illinoisâs Red Flag Law did not prevent the February 15, 2019, Henry Pratt Company Shooting (five innocents killed).
Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) is introducing federal legislation to promote "red flag" gun prohibition and confiscation order schemes. Sadly, this legislation was encouraged by President Donald Trump, who once famously said, "take the guns first, go through due process second."
This may be the most dangerous anti-Second Amendment legislation in the 2019-2020 congressional session â not only because of what it would mean for gun owners, but because it is widely supported by anti-gun Democrats and Republicans alike.
"Red Flag" laws allow people to secretly petition a judge to have your guns taken away WITHOUT due process. The petitioners do not have to prove you have committed a crime â they can take your gun rights away, followed by a warrant for confiscation of firearms, ammunition, magazines, and gun parts.
And these petitions can sometimes be ex parte â without you even having notice or being present to defend against the petition.
In fact, in some states, a court âmay consider any other evidence of an increased risk for violence, including, but not limited toâŚ.[e]vidence of recent acquisition of firearms, ammunition, or other deadly weapons.â In other words, if someone recently exercised their Second Amendment rights, that could be construed as evidence that they are an âincreased risk for violenceâ and should have a "red flag" order issue against them.
In an ex parte situation, the subject of an order might not even know about it, let alone voluntarily decide to give up their property once they do know. And if itâs an order issued after notice and a hearing, then that subject, if they really are dangerous, gets to maintain possession of weapons until someone takes their weapons from themâif they can find themâor until thereâs a warrant, search, and seizure of property.Â
While a firearm is, of course, personal property, the interest at stake here is far more substantial than the deprivation of a mere possession. â[T]he right to keep and bear armsâ is âamong those fundamental rights necessary to our system of ordered liberty.â McDonald v. City of Chicago, 561 U.S. 742, 130 S. Ct. 3020, 3042 (2010). And by establishing a scheme that would prohibit possession (and allow for seizure) of firearms, "red flag"Â laws strike at the core of the Second Amendment: the right to keep and bear arms in the home for self-defense. District of Columbia v. Heller, 554 U.S. 570, 630 635 (2008).
But it gets worse. "red flag" laws and their underlying statutes skip past due process. The Due Process Clause guarantees that â[n]o person shall . . . be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law.â (U.S. Const., amend. V.) Because â[t]he right to prior notice and a hearing is central to the Constitution's command of due process,â United States v. James Daniel Good Real Property, 510 U.S. 43, 53 (1993), the âgeneral ruleâ is âthat individuals must receive notice and an opportunity to be heard before the Government deprives them of property.â (Id. at 48.)Â
If someone is dangerous enough, due to criminal activity or mental health problems, to be a real threat to themselves or others, then there are many laws by which families, friends, or law enforcement can more appropriately and effectively respond to them.
But if the government does not have enough evidence to investigate or charge a person with a crime or hold them for a mental health evaluation, then the government has not met its burden for taking away rights and property under any scheme.Â
"Red flag" laws stand for the proposition that everyone is guilty unless they can prove their way out of an accusation. And "red flag" laws are unconstitutional and dangerous.Â
FPC strongly opposes âred flagâ laws on practical, policy, and constitutional grounds.
Please stand with us and OPPOSE this legislation!

And why would I give a shit what you thinkâŚ
These people are stupid: Republican Politicians risking our Border Patrol, ICE & Military's lives protecting the border only to release illegals into the USAâŚto later vote Republican Politicians out of office.
Duh,
âŚbecause our RESOURCES are stretched so thin,â Rio Grande Valley Sector Deputy Chief Patrol Agents Raul Ortiz told the Epoch Times during an interview last week. âWe actually donât know who they are.
So far, here in south Texas, weâve apprehended folks from 44 different countries. These are from the Middle East, Southeast Asia, Yemen, Iraq, Pakistan, Iran, you name it.â
ICE Officers Giving Up On Trump Over Catch And Release
The National ICE Council, which endorsed Trump in 2016, sent the president a blistering letter, complaining of catch-and-release procedures and political showmanship in Washington, D.C.
Catch-and-release is forcing ICE officers to devote long hours to mundane tasks, keeping them from performing their usual duties of catching illegal aliens and dangerous criminals.
While Democrats have called to defund and abolish ICE, the president has made efforts to curb catch-and-release and other channels foreign national abuse to enter the country.
The National ICE Council issued a scathing letter to President Donald Trump regarding the continuation of âwasteful and dangerousâ immigration policies at the U.S.-Mexico border.
âWe regretfully write to inform you that in the middle of an immigration crisis on the southern border, you Administration is squandering scarce ICE resources and playing political games with our officers,â the National Immigration and Customs Enforcement Council wrote in a letter sent to Trump on Monday. âTo be direct Mr. President â the rhetoric doesnât match reality and we hope that this letter shows you the complete and total nonsense that is really taking place under the Trump Administration on the southern border.â

U.S. Projected to Add 1.5M Illegal Aliens to Population this Year
The United States is projected to add about 1.5 million illegal aliens to the American population by the end of the year, should current rates of Catch and Release, border crossings, and visa overstays pan out.
This year, the Department of Homeland Securityâs (DHS) Catch and Release policy â whereby border crossers and illegal aliens are readily released from federal custody into the interior of the U.S. â is on track to release roughly 434,000 border crossers and illegal aliens into the country by the end of the year. This projection is based on current estimates that more than 36,000 border crossers and illegal aliens have been released from DHS custody every month since the beginning of the year.
Additionally, Princeton Policy Advisors researcher Steven Kopits projects that in 2019, there will be up to 500,000 illegal aliens at the southern border who successfully cross into the U.S. undetected by Border Patrol agents. These are foreign nationals whom federal immigration officials are unaware of and are usually only deported after they commit a crime in the U.S.
Also, should visa overstay levels continue at the same pace as in Fiscal Year 2017, there could potentially be about 630,000 illegal aliens added to the U.S. population after overstaying their visas.
Center for Immigration Studies Director of Policy Jessica Vaughan told Breitbart News that experts predict there to be anywhere between 300,000 to 400,000 visa overstays this year.
These projections put the number of illegal aliens added to the U.S. population at around one to 1.5 million, on top of the 11 to 22 million illegal aliens who are already living across the country. This finding does not factor in the illegal aliens who will be deported, die over the next year, or leave the U.S. of their own will. As DHS data has revealed, once border crossers and illegal aliens are released into the country, the overwhelming majority are never deported.
For example, while the Trump administration has increased deportations, there continue to be only about 95,000 deportations of illegal aliens living in the U.S., as the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) continues to not have the capacity to handle the enormous, and growing, illegal population.
Meanwhile, U.S. taxpayers are crippled with the burden of absorbing the 11 to 22 million-strong illegal population. In terms of healthcare costs, illegal aliens and their U.S.-born child c0st the American taxpayers about $17 billion a year. Annual illegal immigration costs American taxpayers $116 billion.
The nationâs Washington, DC-imposed mass legal and illegal immigration policy â whereby at least 1.5 million unskilled foreign nationals are admitted to the U.S. every year â is a boon to corporate executives, Wall Street, big business, and multinational conglomerates, as Americaâs working and middle class have their wealth redistributed to the countryâs top earners through wage stagnation.
Research by the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine has discovered that immigration to the country shifts about $500 billion in wages away from working and middle class Americans toward new arrivals and economic elites.
Illegal immigration under the Trump administration this year is projected to surpass every year of illegal immigration levels that the Obama administration oversaw, as Breitbart News has noted. Kopits, the Princeton Policy researcher, expects there to be 775,000 border crossings alone this year. This would be a level of illegal immigration at the U.S.-Mexico border not seen since President George W. Bush was in office.

PSâŚIt's bad enough with your war on chronic pain patients and their Doctors (which includes a significant number of our Veterans)âŚbut any mention of Privatizing Social Security and we can guarantee there won't be a Republican voted to DC for the next 16 yrs. (can you recall 2008!)
AbsolutelyâŚhowever, it pisses me off that our Border Patrol, ICE, Military & Law Enforcement are risking their lives and forced to release these criminals, felons into the USâŚEvery resource should be used to give them what they need to keep every illegal out and deport the ones here. Enough of this BS
And why isn't Soros arrested for Treason, assets seized for aiding in drug smuggling, human trafficking, child sex trafficking, etc. etc. including every organization that soros is connected to.
