Wall-Eyed 0
At Psychology Today Blogs, Constance Scharff points out one of the many fundamental flaws in Donald Trump’s fulminations about a border wall, this one about its ability to deter somehow magickally cure the epidemic of opioid (remember, when Not White persons use it, it’s called heroin) addiction. Here’s a key bit; follow the link for the rest:
A wall – to keep drugs or people out – doesn’t address the fundamental problem that we face. Opioid addiction wasn’t born out of an influx of drugs into the country. It was born out of an internal problem of overprescribing drugs that are unsafe for long-term use. Law enforcement aimed at international drug cartels does nothing to address this.
But, in the Trumpled world, pointing the finger at others, especially if they are brown, is always so much more satisfying than accepting responsibility, is it not?
