          You’re almost there, one more step and you’ll realize the true enemy is capitalism.

          and that we need better solutions that address quality of life and mental health issues to keep people from turning to drugs in the first place.

          Sounds like you can’t really connect those statements, you just feel like capitalism and drugs are bad so naturally their badness must be connected.

              Most problems can be rooted back to capitalism.

              What does that mean to you in tangible terms? What do you think defines capitalism as an economic structure and how do you relate that structure to a cause of something as historical and widespread as drug use?

                  I see, you don’t even really know what an economic structure is. You’re just having a contrarian reacting to the overwhelming greed and self-interest you see in America politics. I get it. I was child too once. Your hearts in the right place, you just need to learn what the words you use actually mean so you can better articulate your objections.
