[QUOTE="UnSafe, post: 2311578, member: 100"] tRidiot- Good illustration of your daily dose of frustrating frequent fliers. They're everywhere, but (As you're well aware) tend to drift to smaller towns and inner city/ economically depressed areas. "Downward drift" describes the phenomena and brings the connection to various forms of mental illness and drug/alcohol abuse, which makes the potential outcome of physical problems worse. Ultimately, there will never be a single solution to social welfare misuse and abuse. I like the concept of drug screen rule for ALL welfare recipients and revoking of benefits for felony convictions, but doubt it'll ever really happen and stand the test of attorney attacks. I also support the concept of reducing the total volume of opiate and benzodiazepine precribing/ dispensing, but not by the State/ Fed. It needs to be controlled by senior Physicians, before it ends up in the hands of the State Med Board, OBNDD, DEA or local cops. That way, when Dr. X has an appoinment book full of med refills and likes to hook young patients on oxycodone, methadone, Xanax or whatever, a group of peers could ***** slap him/her into more constructive prescribing practices.... Before yet another patient dies or profits off the sale of her monthly #60 OxyContin 80mg, #180 Lortab 10's, #90 Xanax 2mg bars and #120 Soma tablets (That's an easy $1000 or more in street value or trade for meth).
