[quote=Anonymous]According to some accounts of the opioid epidemic, declines in the steel and coal industries led to significant unemployment and despair, especially throughout Appalachia. No doubt the blue collar work took its toll over the years on the physical well being of the people in those jobs. Large portions of these unemployed found their way to the disability rolls. Whether all applications for disability were legitimate I can’t say. And treatment for those in despair and in chronic pain did lead to the early stages of the opioid crisis, according to the accounts.[/quote]
