Why do they even ask these questions? or "the truth about methadone"

OK I'm not wasting too much time on this story-but let's talk about the Anna Nicole Smith situation. Why do people even have to wonder why it happened? It's obvious why but I'm sure the story will be covered up. There seems - so far to be no signs of OD or whatever , and there's a simple answer to that. She was on methadone because she was a heroin addict. My own mother can see it from a mile away. She experienced heroin addicts in those years we were trying to do the "right thing" by dealing with my ex wife's heroin addiction.My ex wife had the exact same weirdness, personality type, and the same "busty blonde" look as Anna Nicole Smith. My son was on methadone when he was born. She had been using during pregnancy and there was nothing I could do. The state run methadone clinics seemed to think there was nothing wrong with giving my pregnant ex wife methadone to replace her heroin.They told me it would be "child endangerment" to take her off opiates during pregnancy , that my unborn son would die.They said the methadone would not be like the heroin, and it was just a "man made" replacement. Being I myself don't use drugs and don't encourage it, I , as a sober person could see through the vast money making empire that was the methadone business. Every day I had to go to the methadone clinic, rain or shine, at 5 am . Sometimes I had closed the club at 4 am and just stayed up.I had usually worked all night and sometimes had to open the club that day at 11 am. A lot of times I only had from 5 am to 10 am to sleep. But I had to forgo sleep and stand in line with a pregnant wife and sometimes in the rain or snow so she could get her methadone.Many days we didn't get home until 8 am, and I ended up with an hour's sleep. What happens at the clinic is this: You're addicted to an opiate drug, like heroin, oxycotin, lortab,hydrocodone(same thing) moraphene,opium, whatever. Any drug that is an "opiate" or an "optoid". You can go there and wait in a huge line of about 100 or so people, so with babies in their arms barely sheltered from the rain/cold /whatever weather conditions are there. Finally it opens, and the hopeless junkies rush through the doors like a herd of dying animals.They get numbers just like at a fast food place or a DMV. When it's your turn, you go into a secure vault like room and drink a cup of liquid methadone mixed with a "kool aide" like substance. Meanwhile there is screaming and crying and threats of lawsuits every day because the angry junkies didn't pay the clinc and they get turned away. The councelors there always have this "Jerry Springer" type look. You ever see where Jerry gets this little smirk on his face as two fat women rip each other clothes off, like he's looking at them like trash but he loves the show. As if it assures him he is the superior, rational one. They look at the drug sick junkies and calmly tell them "you need to pay your methadone , we'll have to take your dose down and take you off if you don't pay." See the plan in the clinic, which is a huge lie, is to start the junkie at a high dose, and slowly lower the dose until the person's body adjusts to the loss of opiates from the receptors in the body etc. The truth is , they make the junkies go to counciling sessions which tell them how safe methadone is, and how it's nothing to be ashamed of, and how some people still use methadone in their 60's , and anything else to discourage leaving the program. And if anyone in the addict's family suggest trying to dose down or do the program as it was intended, the clinic comes at those people with both guns blazing, send the "patient" to their psyciatric doctors and councelors who suggest getting a divorce or moving to a "halfway house" or anything else to seperate the drug addict from anyone who might suggest an eventual life without methadone. MY ex wife's councelor tired to "hook her up" with various predatory black males , even going as far as to set up a special "relapse group meeting" where , guess what? My ex wife was the only person attending the meeting , along with the tall athletic black male counselor. This guy had already singled her out as a "stripper" type in a group meeting. He had his eye on her from his first day. He stood up in the meeting and said " I know some of you have sold your self for money. I have too... not to no men though." The drug councelors had to be five years clean, and he was supposedly five years clean. So he was reffering to his "drug addicted" state. He looked like a pro ball player instead of a drug addict. The whole " I sold my body for drugs (to women) was to establish himself as a "major stud" - I mean after all he was "paid for sex" - not by men of course as he said. He was eventually fired because one jaded white junkie got jealous of him hitting on so many patients. She snitched him out, and then every half attractive girl in the clinic was telling stories of how the guy was "after them". Gee hope he wasn't charging, that would have taken away some money from the methadone clinc. Probably the real reason he got fired, they were afraid some of the women might give him some money for that "award winning cock". And what's the point of all this? The reason Anna Nicole's methadone OD hasn't been solidified yet is the methadone industry is a money making venture that doesn't want a scandal. I can hear my ex wife , who after all these years is still using methadone, screaming at the TV about what an ignorant bitch Anna Nicole Smith is, because thanks to her "glorius, life giving methadone" is getting a bad name. SO think about that and have a great day...
