Yesterday I contacted several state attorney general's officies by phone then email providing information supporting our legislation proposal regarding scheduled prescription drug abuse. Voices on the other end of the phone sounded with great relief that a national legislation was even being considered that would stop pill mill, doctor shopping, illegal internet sales, over prescribing doctors, and unethical doctors. This bill will imediately reduce deaths, overdoses, addiction, overcrowding of er rooms, police intervention, undue costs to tax payers and hospitals.
The other most incredable part about this legislation is that it will cost the government not one single penny!
While all this may sound wonderful we anticipate an extremely stiff oposition by the drug lobby because of their fear of a drop in sales of misued scheduled drugs from the effect of this legislation. This being said it will take a strong support base of everyone who has been negatively impacted , to overcome the drug lobbies influrence of power, even with the to long ignored deady/addictive misuse of their scheduled drugs addicting millions and killing thousands!
