China is using fentanyl in a chemical war against AmericaBy Markos Koulanakis Special to McClatchyFentanyl is the synthetic opioid driving America’s public health crisis. Its cheap price, widespread use, addictive quality and deadly effect make it more dangerous than other narcotics classified by the DEA.It is, ultimately, a chemical. And it’s being used as a weapon in China’s 21st Century Opium War against America.President Donald Trump’s twelve-day, five-nation Asia tour will focus on North Korean nukes and international trade. In Beijing, however, he plans to address China’s fentanyl production and distribution, an industry that fuels what the U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission calls “China’s deadly export to the United States.” Trump holds undeniable moral authority when it comes to substance abuse, having personally seen and felt the effects on his family. Forcing China’s hand on fentanyl is the right thing to do.Continued at: http://www.mcclatchydc.com/opinion/article182139386.html
Just a little pet peeve of mine, but "chemical war"? Really? I guess Mexico wages chemical war on tourists with their water.
There is something wrong with Mexican water? Shit. I've been saving money buying cut rate bottled water from a guy downtown. He told me he gets his water from Mexico....
