The promise the opener makes, and how the video pays it back

Transcript

No individual member of the Sackler family has ever been held criminally liable for their family's company, Purdue Pharma, causing a massive epidemic of people addicted to opioids. It is illegal for drug companies to pay doctors to prescribe their specific medication, and they did that in countless lucrative ways. In 2000, the Taliban banned poppy cultivation, which dropped global opium production by tier, and The US and Purdue Pharma worse together to secure a cheap supply of raw opium by invading Afghanistan in 2001 while we were sold the official narrative of nine eleven. While they were putting in movies and songs and telling us what was coming. So it was our fault for not noticing that they're that messed up and would tell us ahead of time. This is my driver. They never went to jail even though almost a million people died from that opioid crisis. Breathe.
