That just won’t happen in America (look at equifax).
But making manufacturers responsible for covering costs for recovery/withdrawal from drugs they sell would encourage them to work to make drugs less addictive (currently making an addictive drug is a perpetual money printing machine), and result in them coming up with better/faster/cheaper drugs to withdraw.
I mean if an individual stage did this of course they’d just bribe (I mean support) some senators to make such a rule unenforceable at a federal level.
