With over 200,000 deaths caused by Opioids, it's important to look at how this tragedy took place and who's behind it. In this video we look at the Sackler family, the family that has caused untold damage to the lives of millions for their role in the opioid crisis through their company Purdue Pharma. #sackler #opioid #crisis #epidemic #purdue ColdFusion Book "New Thinking" | newthinkingbook.squarespace.com/about/ New Thinking on Google Play: bit.ly/NewThinkingGooglePlay Subscribe here: goo.gl/9FS8uF Check out the previous episode: Become a Patron!: www.patreon.com/ColdFusion_TV CF Bitcoin address: 13SjyCXPB9o3iN4LitYQ2wYKeqYTShPub8 Hi, welcome to ColdFusion (formerly known as ColdfusTion).
