Wandering Along the Path: Right Speech

I'm reading a mystery by Louise Penny, the Canadian writer, but it is also about the opiod epidemic.  If what she implies is true, we are about to lose many people to this vicious drug, and we have already lost so many.  Her description of the evil people who benefit from this traffic makes it seem such a problem of epic proportions that it all but seems hopeless.  I admire her for tackling the subject and daring to have a possible solution.  Speaking out, when you've got millions of people listening, is brave and important and yet seldom done outside of journalism.  Her books reach people who are tired of reading about drugs, and she freshens up the debate and the ways to grapple with this destructive global greed.  I admire her courage.
