From the 12/13 Show – Statistics Continue to Increase and the Silence Gets Louder

Sunday’s show had Bill Ford, creator of Dadonfire.net http://www.dadonfire.net as a guest. Bill’s website offers a number of articles, blogs and perspectives that delve into a number of issues alcohol and drugs create for discussion. The radio show focuses on the growing influence prescription drugs is creating in our society and dadonfire.net is a site that broadens the issue and topic. Drugs and alcohol are affecting every community in America and possibly as many as 60% of our families according to Bill Ford’s sources. The growing drug problem affects family life, our children, employers, society at every level, the legal system, and the penal system in every town and city. The incarceration rate that involves drugs is staggering. The disability rates with people on prescription narcotics continues to increase. The personal and societal tragedies that are increasing related to prescription and street drugs while our public officials, elected officials, and major segments of our society remain silent should be a topic for the philosophers in coming years. Please go to Bill Ford’s website for a broader perspective on drugs in America. The radio show is pleased to be linked with dadonfire.net.
