[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No one on the Acela corridor cares about the opioid crisis. It’s kind of like the polio epidemic in Pakistan. Sad, yes, but a world away.[/quote] This is untrue. There are people who live in DC who know people who died in this crisis. People care but it is a huge complex problem that needs real action but Americans care more about illegal immigration. This is what the GOP decided to fixate on. (Notice I didn’t say fix because they have made it worse.)[/quote] Washington DC itself has the third highest opioid overdose death rate in the country. Do people not care because they are black and poor? https://www.kff.org/other/state-indicator/opioid-overdose-death-rates/?currentTimeframe=0&sortModel=%7B%22colId%22:%22Opioid%20Overdose%20Death%20Rate%20(Age-Adjusted)%22,%22sort%22:%22desc%22%7D[/quote]
