    Well that's not good enough. If you are caught bringing in or selling fentanyl, you should be put to death as far as I'm concerned.

    I manually added the number for 2021 from a separate source.
    100,000 deaths a year deserves the death penalty as far as I'm concerned. Liberals are worried about the 200 deaths due to AR-15 but don't really want to do anything about the 100k overdoses.

    yep, the last admin let this get out of control, Biden is doing something about it, thanks Biden!

    legalize natural drugs and people will know what they are buying, fewer overdoses

    they are even lacing marijuana with fentanyl now as there is a shortage of good marijuana

    Looks like the last president didn’t want to do anything about it either. Deaths jumped from about 70,000 to over 90,000.

    And how can you say liberals (I have to assume you include Biden in this) “don’t want to do anything about it” when seizures have quadrupled?

    I'd take a position on this but I don't know what's making people take this crap in the first place. Sometimes it's people in physical pain who can't afford legitimate meds. But why are kids taking drugs?

    If Geriatric Joe is such a stunning success in suppressing fentanyl then why is it such a gigantic problem today... you know, in 2022...?!

    Getting rid of this lethal, toxic crap should be relatively easy in any country that understands the proper, effective uses of "crime-and-punishment". Never forget my tattered, old maxim -- WHATEVER YOU TOLERATE, YOU GET MORE OF....

    Calm down. I was responding to someone who claimed there was a lack of concern. Increased seizures doesn’t indicate a lack of concern.

    No, it isn't a good thing, because for every seizure, two, or three get through. That means more poison on our streets.

    And how much more is getting through, how more is being attempted to get through versus Trump? And those aren't off the streets they are just what they are managing to get at the border. Biden's policies are producing record OD's and deaths.

    so you would prefer Biden reduced the seizures, I think his getting 4x more off the street than Trump is a good thing, Trump should have done this

    More seizures means more is coming in and more is making it to the street.

    maybe, maybe not, but fact is, Trump should have been upping seizures when it all started, but he did not, Trump failed to do anything, Biden is upping the seizures

    Trump had fewer seizures because there was less smuggling.

    Trump greatly reduced the amount of fentanyl entering our country and Biden has opened the spigots to a renewed high flow of it again just like Obama did.

    But if 10X as much is coming in, he's doing a terrible job. The amount seized is an incomplete piece of data and no conclusions can be drawn from it.

    As long as people want it, it will be here.
    Its a Bipartisan problem, that requires a bipartisan agreement to just legalize the crap. Then let the market dictate the solutions.
    Im sure people want a safe way to season their life.
