Elderly Turn To Drug Dealing
"When a person is on Social Security, drawing $500 a month, and they can sell their pain pills for $10 apiece, they'll take half of them for themselves and sell the other half to pay their electric bills or buy groceries," Floyd County jailer Roger Webb said.
This recent article about the rising numbers of elderly arrested for reselling their prescription drugs so that they can afford the bare neccessities causes Queenie's Daughter to ask, "What good is religion?" Most of America claims to believe in God and yet we let our elders suffer slow deaths in indignity and poverty? God save me from your followers. How sad.
