7 in 10 say Opioid addiction is a very serious problem – CBS poll

May 8, 2018 – When Americans are asked who they blame most for the opioid addiction problem, people who abuse pain medication top the list (28 percent), followed by pharmaceutical companies who make and sell the pain medication (23 percent), and doctors who prescribe the medication (19 percent). Dealers and gangs who bring drugs into the country (16 percent) rank last on the list of the choices given.  A large majority of Americans – 8 in 10 – say the federal government should be doing more to address opioid addiction.
