This reminds me of the marijuana legalization in Washington and Oregon. We were promised all this excess money to schools and roads, and none of it has arrived. Then we were told it would be regulated. I can get a prescription or go out and buy it without really trying. If I ask a doctor for aspirin, I have more paperwork and carefulness to deal with than this. If I am in the hospital, the doctor will sooner prescribe mary jane than an aspirin because of all of the paperwork to be done.
We can also see this with mental health disease and actual physical needs. I have a friend who has Ehrler danlos syndrome. She could look behind herself like an owl. The doctors continued to think she had some mental disorder, and disregarded all of the xrays and scans that showed something was wrong with her spine. It is easier to prescribe mental disease medications than help someone with a physical ailment. I've gone with her to the doctor, and I have heard them yell at her, or say it was all in her head. It is in her head, right about the point between her skull and her spine.
We have doctors filling out the easy paperwork, prescribing wrong medicines, and then yelling at people who say it isn't what they say. Add this wokeness and the idea of Do No Harm is becoming a bit shady.
I couldn't find recent numbers, but the province of Ontario somehow lost 42 million selling legal weed in 2018-2019.
These dimwits can't even sell drugs competently.
Yeah, it's the same everywhere I've checked. It's like they smoked it or something.
