GalacticAcid posted:I'm under the impression it's a bit more muted in Philly. Pittsburgh it's rough, especially the immediate suburbs. The smaller cities like York and Lanc and poo poo are in the heart of it. Yeah I'm by Philly. Everyone was real surprised by the Operation Mainline bust so I wouldn't be surprised if it's just not visable yet over here.

Part of it is that Philly's heroin problem is in Kensington etc, and "inner city" drug problems are just taken as a matter of course unfortunately

Isn't it shown that only around 5% of people who are exposed to opioids get addicted? Why are there so many addiction problems then?anime was right posted:no, health care rates even in the good states are rising, including california. around 10-15% per year. my premiums went up by around 30 dollars per month this year and i was paying around 275 per month last year. i checked to make sure i wasnt going insane and that was actually par in the biggest blue states. Jesus loving Christ!

Donald Trump went to factory workers and promised them jobs. He told them big corporations were stupid and he was going to force them to bring back jobs. Donald Trump won the presidency.
