"Prescription Thugs"

Hi everyone!!

The other day I was reading some articles on SOTT and I stumbled with this one:

The above link is from the original page, I couldn't found the article in english on SOTT, but here is the link in spanish if any spanish speaker is interested:

https://es.sott.net/article/52858-El-plan-de-recetar-hasta-la-muerte-La-Peste-Blanca-del-siglo-XXI

I recommend you to read it if you haven't already because it's an amazing article, very shocking to say the least.

"Over the past two decades hundreds of thousands of Americans have died prematurely because of irresponsibly prescribed narcotic ‘pain killers’ and other central nervous system depressants, like tranquillizers and their deadly interactions.…"

That is how the article begins and is basically the central theme but I want to utilize that introduction too, to recommend a documentary called "Prescription thugs":

"In this follow-up to his film Bigger Stronger Faster, director Chris Bell turns his camera on the abuse of prescription drugs and, ultimately, himself. After witnessing friends and relatives face tragedy as they become addicted to prescription drugs, Bell sets out to explore the goals of pharmaceutical companies and doctors in this ever-growing market, and asks how they are any different from back-alley drug-pushers. His journey leads to experts on the nature of addiction in our culture, as well as to pharmaceutical whistleblowers that testify to the solely dollar-driven aims of pharmaceutical companies. [...]"
