KICK THE BUREAUCRATS
If you are a junkie, then you know the biggest problem with your pesky
little habit is the rising quandary of overdosing. With heroin-related
deaths having doubled since 1997, overdoses in Massachusetts are
reaching epidemic proportions, due mainly to a few factors.

easy to get as a bottle of Mad Dog 20-20, with a less of a stigma
attached to it as say a wino "getting on the dog."

again?
