The Oxycontins that caused the addiction crisis. But at least they didn’t kill like the fentanyl. I know the city I lived in the man who had the drug stores is a republican and he added several other stores because they were only allowed so many pills per store. But the biggest problem was Afghanistan war by W. The premise was terrorist but, it really was all about the opioids. Terry Johnson’s bill that DeWine signed stopped the pain clinics per request of Southern Ohio Medical Center / Ohio Health they was not getting their cut of the money. They are all republicans. That was when the fentanyl came in and caused deaths. The tri state area was the test market for oxycontins which they knew were more additive. But at the same time there is no way to prove or disprove pain. So the majority of the people probably did need to have pain management. There is always going to be some people who will abuse medications. So as far as I am concerned Johnson and DeWine have contributed greatly in those deaths.
