Drug Death Crisis

America must take the war on drugs more seriously as overdoses are becoming one of the leading causes of death in many states. I was blissfully unaware of the scope of the problem until I checked into a Louisville motel a couple of years ago. The lady at the front desk told me she was "just back from a couple of weeks off". I asked her if she had a "vacation". She began to tear up and exclaimed, "No, no vacation- my 44 year old husband died after eating a Fentanyl patch!" This drug epidemic is a menace that must be stopped.
