Close the border where the drugs are flowing in at record levels.
Do your “News” sources not tell you this?

 

[initforme]

I'm all for closing the borders. But drugs will still flow in unabated. So be it.

 

[LAUGHatLEFTISTS]

More tax cuts for the billionaires will help.

Why do you have to lie everybody received a tax cut. You’re talking point doesn’t work so well when you tell the truth.

 

[initforme]

Billionaires are part of the problem.

 

[LAUGHatLEFTISTS]

give reparations to the victim's families, for starters!

and abolish the DEA!

Go do another bong hit and let the adults talk.

It will be much harder. For illegals the deal is the drug lords will get them into the country for a price, and that price is getting the fentanyl to the main supplier in the US.

David Beasley was a republican, you idiot. Salaries in SC are still depressed.

It's still going to get here with little to stop it. The truth is americans need their relief from the awful pressure they are under.

 

[LAUGHatLEFTISTS]

The drug companies who marketed "rich man's heroin" called OxyContin & ruined the lives of countless thousands of people are no better then Mexican drug cartels. They knew the shit was as addictive as heroin & lied about it for profit. They're some of the most evil bastards in the history of this Country.

Sanders is 100% correct.

Yes, we’ve all heard this. Can you at least man/woman/ it / thing up and admit Bidens open borders are helping the cartels get more drugs into the US?

That's what beer is for.

Oh please do tell what awful pressure Americans are under.

 

[initforme]

Work produce work produce run here run there it's a god awful mess. There is no other way to assess it.

 

[Ray From Cleveland]

Oh please do tell what awful pressure Americans are under.

Agreed. My father was a bricklayer. When he got home from his full-time job in the hot sun, he'd go out after work doing side jobs until dark. Up north bricklayers can't work in the winter so he had to make as much money as he could to hold us over until next spring. That's pressure.

The problem existed before any pharma company existed. How are they to blame.

This guy sounds like an Oxy salesman

No just stating facts which you cherry picked

Better question is why are you asking Republicans when you should be asking Jo Biden.

What a crock. The whole Oxy thing was based on bogus prescriptions.

There will always be drugs.

And fentanyl is a legally prescribed drug

And not one Big Pharma executive has gone to prison for creating this deadly epidemic.

Legally prescribed. So, Pharma isn't responsible. Thanks for that.
