And now reparations has too brought to the judicial tables

Billions and billions dollar scam and shit for a fine. Pharmaceutical owns the country.

So no one is held accountable. Another victory for the top 1% MAGA

“The settlement is believed to include both cash and money for drugs and distribution who those addicted.” Who the hell wrote this?

If you don't try, you will never know. 'It's better to live with failure after trying than with the regret of not trying when you should have!'

Crazy world where the tool makers are attacked instead of the mis-users. This usually doesn't end well.

Shut them down and imprison them anyway.
