maybe, maybe not. it's estimated that opoid addiction costs The United States 55.7 billion dollars in damages. The more important question to ask is if the treatment is still cost effective for something that will most likely make the problem only slightly better. If you also have to think about the political costs to Trump as he made this a cornerstone promise to people in rural areas.

Would the money spent on damages plus the cost of the remaining remaining damage be less than 56 billion? What if the cost goes down slightly? The. It's worth it from a purely financial stand point. What if it goes up slightly but helps 1000's of people?
