Also, I posed this question earlier which was probably missed...

If there was not a single homeless person and everyone had access to food, shelter, healthcare, and clean water are you still anti-class? Idgaf, if other people are mo richer than me.

Do you think that the correlation between the increased amount of prescribed opioids and the increased amount of heroin users/overdoses is significant? Human brains love dope, are people responsible for the outcome of taking advice from someone that society tells them to trust? Are you cool with me using leading questions?

If you say so.

This just brings us back to the conversation we had not long ago about a lack of education, people blaming mcdonalds for getting fat, and general irresponsibility of the individual. I've already excused people who get addicted via some external force. I guess you didn't read my anecdote, which represents probably 90% of the junkies I've dealt with in my life.

Do you expect people to take responsible courses of actions that they're not aware of?

Is family considered an external influence?

Children? Who have no money and parents responsible for what they consume? Those dirty McDonalders forcing McFatties down the throats of our poor children.

Are people who are prone to obesity for the rest of their lives because of what their parents fed them as a child responsible for when they get fat following moderate changes in lifestyle?

I expect people to do a bit of research and ask their doctors questions. I expect people to follow the prescription instructions. I expect general skepticism, especially NOW when the opiod crisis is well known.

Not unless they are shoving pills down your throat.
