Scott Gottlieb, nominated as Saboteur of the Food and Drug Administration, was paid by pharma companies while he condemned measures to stop companies from selling opioids.

The problem of opioid addiction seems to be the result of the harm done by dooH niboR and plutocracy in general, so the real solution is not in restricting availability of opioids but in changing the factors that lead so many people to want to drug themselves into insensibility. However, Gottlieb is evidently inclined to sell out and should not be an official.
