Oh the irony. The company that literally brought heroin to market, gets a bad name from buying a company known for heavy-handed corporate litigation practices.

To be clear I'm not trying to blame Bayer for the opioid epidemic. I just think there's a joke in there

Outside of the US heroin is still very much on the medical market. It's used in hospitals mostly.

You think that is what Monsanto is known for? Not for being the spearhead of Kissinger's depopulation program?
