And the problem with black market is a lot of that stuff's coming from China. There's a whole other play there that we could get into. But China's intentionally shipping... fentanyl into Mexico to get it into the United States to disrupt the youth of America. Like our government knows this. So most of the fentanyl coming in from Mexico is indirectly coming from China.

And it's an effort to create a crisis for the youth of America. And it worked. You know, these individuals are now still seeking opioids that they can't get from the traditional medical system anymore. And they've turned to black market.

I can tell you what the solution's not. It's not letting the Sacklers sell. They literally are selling the solution.

I don't know if you know that. Like, yeah, their new treatment is the leading market leader right now in America. So the Sacklers are printing money off of treating the crisis they created. And the problem with that treatment is it's also addictive. You're just trading an addiction. You're trading an opioid addiction for a less addictive alternative. What's the new thing?

I don't even remember the name of it, but I'll tell you this. What's crazy is Ibogaine and these treatments that they're doing in Mexico and that Stanford University is doing has such a higher success rate. And again, it's one weekend and you're done.

And that's what I was trying to do when I started my first healthcare startup, MediSmart. We would go out and educate.
