America's Alarming Prescription Drug Addiction

[youneac]

"In 2008, 7000 people a day started abusing prescription drugs"

That would be 2.5 million people per year. How come I get the feeling that this "doctor" is exaggerating just a tad? Perhaps the fact that she is not quoting any official report? Or that she's got quite a backside to pull those numbers out of?

Or perhaps the fact that the government is considering cutting NIDA's budget and they are desperately seeking media attention to justify their existence?

obese predominately white-trash americans not being able to deal with everyday life comes as no surprise...if its not drugs, they place blame for their shortcomings and irresponsibility on immigrants if not the president for being black.
