It is not doctors and pharma companies, it is society that thinks solutions come from drugs. Alcohol, weed, prescriptions, etc.

Have a bad day? Drink.

Have a bad life? Smoke.

Have a bad diet? Take a pill.

We are giving drugs instead of prescribing work, diet, and exercise, which more often than not are the real culprits.

Society determines what is acceptable. We accept people high on substances. The people know what they are doing when they get into it.

Is my claim wild?

Should we act like 50,000 idiots overdosing is a tragedy but 500,000 innocent unborn babies are some kind of victory for progress?

i think you want society to just all be average people. the majority of society does not determine what is acceptable. they may go along with it, or push against it, but they don't drive it or enforce it.

you're the one that wants to push the narrative that we think abortion is a victory.

Talk about irresponsibly framing an argument. Yup, people get abortions to get a taste for killing babies. That's it, nobody else affected.

Would you care to point out where I singled out pot specifically? Seems as though you are looking for something that isn't there.

Pretty sure the babies are affected more than anyone. This is lost on liberals. So worried about mom being inconvenienced that we overlook the murder.

"Inconvenienced" is an interesting word choice there.

I clearly stated that pot, alcohol, prescription drugs, etc are all problems.
