"“It’s not fun to see how the sausage is made behind the scenes of American capitalism”
This documentary goes into detail about the opioid epidemic and how corporate greed pushed highly addictive, pain medication onto average Americans who didn’t need it.
It’s detailed and has interviews of many different kinds of players in the course of events that lead to such a medical issue in the U. S. "
"I learned so much about the pain med epidemic from this docuseries. It covers all the big pharma players like Purdue & the Sackler family. If you watched “Dope “Sick”, follow it up with this. "
