Decline in teen drug use continues, surprising experts

Think most commenters are correct and that tech and screens have usurped more “medicinal” drugs.

What I find interesting is the general lack of care among folks here at HN. There was a comment thread about some person in AL alluding to not being able to find qualified workers at their government contractor implying a morale hang up on “weapon systems”

I’d argue tech kills more folks than these contractors but people can easily look past that.

It's a question of spectacle. 300 people dying in a plane crash is perceived as worse than 300'000 dying of preventable disease.

(Or 1 insurance CEO being killed being perceived as worse than 50'000 being killed by denied insurance claims)
