Overdose problem is out of control
It is strange that the so-called “best minds” have no clue when it comes to the quickest way to stop deaths from opioid drug overdose. The experts are just as out of touch with the reality of human helplessness as are my readers.
What is that key ingredient missing in all these so-called recovery programs? The key to success in any pursuit, be it rising among the ranks or getting rid of an evil or bad habit, is to give control to the boss and do what the boss tells you. We must please the boss because the boss has the power to approve or disapprove what you offer to prove that you merit promotion or graduation.
Well then, children, who is the boss from whom we need approval? When it comes to breaking any bad habit, the boss is time!
Those in control of the means and methods of solving our drug overdose problem falsely believe that they have all the time of eternity to solve and win the war on drug overdose deaths. Do they not? They do not realize how urgent it is to enact a program because they fail to feel the need to win by a certain amount of time or drugs will send all of society spinning downward. The use of drugs that kill spirals out of control and begins to take over the minds of the entire human race.
These political, medical and spiritual leaders who are engaged in the process of ending deaths by overdose think that they can afford to do endless procrastinating and research into the issue. All the while, the evil of painkiller and opioid addiction becomes stronger by the minute.
You probably think that I am about to invoke the use of praying to God for an answer. Well, God has already given us an answer – “get busy living or get busy dying!” Thus spoke the Lord.
If we do not get busy living fully committed with all our resources to conquering this evil by April, 2017 (only weeks away), then the end will come. First to Fayette County culture and next the state of Pennsylvania and then the entire United States of America will be overpowered by the evil of narcotic drug use in all its legal and illegal forms.
First, completely remove all prescription painkillers from our drugstores and find another way to help those suffering from chronic pain that has no power over the human mind to lead to addiction.
Later, I will tell you what we must do next.
