That’s what happens when a corrupt FDA allows the corrupt big pharma companies to pump our whole nation full of ‘non addictive’ opioids that have destroyed tens of millions of lives and continue to kill hundreds of thousands of people every year.
I’m against the ‘war on drugs’ but this isn’t a policy of the war on drugs…this is blatant corruption from the institution we’re supposed to trust most, and pushed by the most corrupt organizations in our nation, that bring in tens of billions in profits while avoiding the slap on the wrist fines.

Agreed.

Without a thriving black market for drugs fentanyl wouldn’t be anywhere as big of an issue as it is. So I think it’s both.
I am aware. The above solutions are going to have to be a part of the solution if the goal is to address the root causes.
And actually thinking about it more, there are some additional necessary parts to address the problems:
Wealth inequality must become a thing of the past
Education and healthcare should be free for all citizens
The housing crisis needs to be solved through fixing our draconian zoning laws, increases in supply through medium density housing, there needs to be more market value housing & co-ops, etc.
These things aren’t solved simply, each of the above has its own set of multi part solutions that are needed. But these 3 contribute a great deal to the problem.
which the problem doesn’t seem to be prescriptions.
They are very much related. People that get addicted to prescription opioids are going to do anything to get their fix, including seeking drugs on the black market that are often laced with fentanyl.
What would you do specifically for fentanyl?
I would do/fix the above things. If there is a specific one that you need an explanation for why it needs to be a part of the solution let me know.

So what do you think is the best way to handle the fentanyl crisis?
We’re talking about Fentanyl, which the problem doesn’t seem to be prescriptions.
