> Do you believe that China's massive and uncontrolled supply had no effect on the opioid epidemic?

That's not a bizarre position to take when most addicts started on prescribed meds, whether those meds were prescribed for them or diverted from friends and family members. People move onto fentanyl when they've developed a tolerance for prescription meds and can no longer get higher doses.

Why don't other places have such a big problem with fentanyl?

I don't have a strong argument against that. And I've never seen convincing evidence that a drug-war-type focus on restricting supply is worth the cost.
