Luigi Mangione's Suppressed Evidence, Mackenzie Shirilla’s "Crash" Doc - "Positively Legal" with Mark Eiglarsh and Jonna Spilbor
"When we have blamed the pharmaceutical companies for the problem of opiate addiction, are we all really so dim that we think that the pharmaceutical companies are actually the answer to the very problem we're suggesting that they created? Isn't their business model exactly the same? How does any drug dealer make money? Return customers."
Ginny Burton, who overcame 40 years of addiction and three prison sentences, accused the addiction treatment industry of deliberately maintaining patient dependency for financial gain. She claims the shift between 2013-2015 to rebrand addiction as substance use disorder made everything Medicaid reimbursable and pushed medication-assisted treatment with pharmaceutical companies at the helm. Burton argues abstinence-based approaches are suppressed because they don't generate recurring revenue.
