As pointed out in the material presented in this module, substance abuse/addiction is contributing to many devastating social problems!  Our criminal justice and health care systems are overwhelmed by virtue of large court dockets due to very high rates of alcohol/drug/narcotic addiction which contributes to high crime/arrest/incarceration rates, higher fatal auto accident rates, high rates of domestic violence/destruction of families, higher rates of disease/mortality, higher rates of homicide/suicide, higher rates of mass/school shootings and impairing physical/mental health.  What do you attribute to the U.S. having the above out of control issues?  Can we fix this devastating problem?  What needs to be done about it?  Post photos, diagrams, posters, videos, podcasts or something creative to enhance your discussion.
