Over-medicated society

I was at CVS picking up a prescription for Boy. The pharmacist asst. was rifling through bins full of those bags they stick the bottles of pills in. Bins and bins, filled to the top. They spilled over into baskets on top and on the floor around the cabinet. Literally thousands of bags of pills. Some bags likely had numerous bottles of pills.

In one drug store there were several thousand prescriptions waiting to be picked up. I thought about it a minute and realized in my experience every drug store I I have been in it is the same scene.

How could this be? 3 or 4 CVS, Rite Aide, Independent stores all heaped to the top. Who the hell is taking all this stuff and for what?
