No, it&#x27;s a good thing. It means people that are addicted (by choice or not) don&#x27;t need to resort to crime or desperation to buy essential medicines.<p>Less doctors &quot;pushing&quot; really means more doctors being very critical of patients. Which means more people in pain, scared to make too big a fuss, lest they be labeled an &quot;addict&quot; or &quot;seeker&quot;.<p>We don&#x27;t accept (in theory) a legal system that condemns innocent people to suffer, why should we accept a health system that does the same?
