1. The Sackler family won immunity from all future civil and criminal liability. Maybe they paid off Rudy in a shady hotel during their corporate bankruptcy proceedings. Those vampiric fucks intended to suck people dry through overprescribing and transmuting pain management as one aspect of care into a central, "enlightened" liberal value... with a bunch of perks thrown to doctors.

2. The Prohibition-inspired, Nixon-era (racist), pointless War on Drugs fuels murders and violence in Central and South America, gives profits to terrorists, and keep users hooked and criminalized. The way forward is decriminalization, regulation, testing, and treatment.
