>How could it possibly not be a factor, given human nature? What other explaination would you propose for the scientific vetting of oxycontin?

you already made up your mind apparently so i dont know why your here.

if you cant think of any possible reasons oxy was passed other then money then god help you (its not like oxy has any medical applications. ffs using your logic all painkillers are designed to make money. fuck me you probably think pharma likes cancer and wouldnt cure it if they could).

'drugs are bad m'kay' isnt an argument and neither is shameless appeals to conspiracy.

Oxycontin is more addictive with similar efficacy compared to other opioids. Why do you think it was pushed, if not for the billions of usd profit?
