As you answer the questions $-$ be clear and concise and use the tools we spoke about. I am not looking for more words, just more impact as you are trying to convince someone $($me$)$ that your views and analysis are thoughtful and impactful.

Please answer the following questions:

List the various businesses mentioned in this case, including drug manufacturers, distributors, and clinics. Do you believe they acted in an ethical and socially responsible way, and why or why not?

What stakeholders were impacted by the actions of these businesses? Which were helped, and which were hurt, and how?

Note: for Questions $1$ & $2,$ think about the most effective way to depict your thoughts$/$opinions$.$

Quickly describe the impact of the "Shareholders" vs the other "Stakeholders."

Looking at the case as whole, what organizations or individuals do you believe bear the greatest responsibility for the opioid epidemic, and why? What should be the consequences for those responsible.
