Siddhartha Golu reviewed Empire of Pain by Patrick Radden Keefe
Review of 'Empire of Pain' on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
I remember first knowing about the Sackler family when Jon Oliver did a segment on them, and I remember feeling infuriated. Little did I know about the empire that they had created, riding on the wave of people's addictions, creating and fueling the opioid crisis and absolving themselves of all the blame while at the same time, putting up their names on all the Ivy league buildings.
It's sickening to learn how the rich always get a preferential treatment by law and society.
