The Real Drug Dealers: How Big Pharma Got Away with Mass Addiction

If you ever forget how corrupt our government is, just look at how they handled the opioid epidemic.

For two decades, doctors and pharmaceutical companies pumped opioids into anyone who walked into a clinic. It didn’t matter if you had a sore back, a stubbed toe, or just felt down. The entire system was rotten. Drug reps showed up with gifts, tickets, free vacations, and fancy dinners—all to bribe doctors into pushing as many pills as possible.

Go to the doctor with a little pain, and you’d walk out with a bag full of highly addictive drugs. Not because it was good medicine, but because it made everyone rich. Everyone except you.

When I was 21, I blew out a disc in my back. The pain came and went. But the doctor kept handing me hydrocodone like it was candy. This was more than 20 years ago, and I still remember the day I told him I didn’t want it anymore.

Luckily, I stopped taking it before it could take hold of me. No withdrawals. No addiction. Just a close call. But so many others weren’t that lucky. We’ve all heard the stories. Families ruined. Lives lost. And back then, I didn’t realize hydrocodone was basically heroin in a bottle.

So what did our government do about it? Did they go after the companies that manufactured these poisons? Did they strip licenses from doctors who handed them out like Halloween candy?

Of course not.

The biggest lawsuit was against Rite Aid. Not the drug companies. Not the doctors. Just a handful of pharmacy chains. The claim? Pharmacists were supposed to magically recognize addicts at the counter and turn them away, even though the law doesn’t allow them to reject a doctor’s prescription.

That was their solution. No jail time. No accountability. No justice. Just blame the guy behind the register.

Our government is bought and paid for. Pharmaceutical companies never face consequences. They destroy lives for profit and walk away untouched. And while you’re reading this, they’re already working on the next drug. The next crisis. The next way to kill you slowly while making billions.

That’s not a conspiracy. That’s just business in America.
