Agreed. And then the Sacklers --- how convenient! --- are made the scapegoats and everybuddy is happeee! And never mind the owners --- look at the tv ads. Ad agencies and paid actors beaming with joy.

As a physician I remember being forced to submit to compulsory "medical education" about pain relief in the 1990s. We were told we could have our medical licenses revoked if we didn't prescribe the new long-acting "nonaddictive" opioids peddled by the Sacklers. Since opioids were now "risk-free" there was no reason to ever let anybody feel pain again. The same state medical board later forbade treating Covid with ivermectin and mandated Covid vaccines. It's really not difficult to control the practice of medicine once the medical boards are bought and paid for.
HUGE scandal in the 1950's--- "College basketball players shaving points!" Reaction was seismic. Careers ruined (good).
Fast-forward to 1990s-2020s: State medical boards shaving points. Open about it. In-your-face whadda ya goin do about it, worm?
Were any of the medical board members arrested for knowingly lying about non-addictive? Probably not. 100-1 odds they weren't.
Sidenote: The insurance companies have been real quiet long-term about all of this going on. Conclusion: They've already priced the future cost of any revelations into the rates they've been charging / are charging today.
I mean, you've got to be a bloated GE poobah switching jobs and going out to Indiana to be able destroy an insurance company (as its new CEO), and that was what about 25-30 years ago? Since then, if I'm not mistaken (I might be), real quiet. Everybody's happy. Invest in companies manufacturing coffins.
