To add to your point, a lot of comedy involves taking the power away from the powerful, and look who's powerful right now

As an old-head full stack developer who prefers back end because there is no ux, just information flow, I can tell you that you are seen.
Something like a survey that asks me to assess whether I agree or disagree on a scale of 1-5 fills me with so much anxiety, especially when the question is worded in such a way that makes me feel like it contradicts its sentiment, or just doesn't apply to me. Why can't they just give me a separate not applicable option.
I just had to switch from Vyvanse to Adderall XR because the only pharmacy in my area that didn't have a backorder closed. It's only been a couple weeks but I greatly prefer the Vyvanse, however the Adderall is better than being unmedicated. Adderall isn't as "smooth" and it gave me a tummy ache and caused headaches due to inadequate hydration. Since I figured out the hydration issue the headaches haven't been a problem and I think the tummy ache was just due my old guts getting acclimated to a new medication.
All that said, I am in a similar boat financially, my insurance wasn't paying for the Vyvanse so I ended up using my entire HSA contribution every month, and the Adderall is $20.
You've got that backwards. US consumes the heavy stuff because it is cheap and they have the ability to refine it. They sell the light stuff to places that do not have the refining capacity to refine the heavy stuff.
That shouldn't even be classified as violence since it is a response to actions that are a direct threat to life.
