I couldn't care less about the opioid crisis and people addicted to opiods.
Why would you not care about the opioid crisis?
I don't care about other people and I certainly don't want to help them!
You should have sympathy for those suffering. Some of the people involved are addicted and cannot get the help that they desperately need.
A friend of mine died from a heroin OD, but that was his problem not mine.
Empathy for those who are suffering from the scourge of drugs is crucial to their recovery. If you don't find a way to have compassion for drug users then they will feel unsupported in their efforts to gain control.
