For example, were doctors over-prescribing opioids for anti-worker’s interests reasons? Yes (more ability to manage pain in the short term, more ability to work; $$$ coming into the hospital from pharma) but also No (inpatient opioids are considered a pretty well-studied treatment protocol; the customer service model forced onto clinicians by hospitals becoming businesses thanks to our reimbursement model led to a culture of pain avoidance where the reality of the pain induced by some medical procedures was obscured due to the medications available to treat* it)

I need to learn more about adhd medication dependency outside of the sort of flippant “it’s literally pharmaceutical meth” understanding. Saw a post comparing it to the opioid epidemic and I don’t totally disagree but i have hesitations just because I have studied opioid dependency and the epidemic itself and I think there are some distinct differences

Got a $30 parking ticket today, not for not paying the meter but because the car behind the spot I went to was halfway into the spot so I just parked in front of them and apparently if you aren’t within the arbitrary signs they post for those dumb ass ParkMobile machines it’s ticketable. So they made $4 from me to pay for parking and $30 to fuck with me.
