Same as it ever was.

Someone posted about adoptive 'parents' getting about 36,000 in payments on children they starved, incarcerated and buried (one buried, anyway). I see the devil in people every day. 

This was so far away from me as long as Mom and Dad with God could shield me. It was all somewhere else. Under a different regime. A different time, even, which was long gone. Now, it's like it came up out of the ground, out of hell, and made them slaves to its venom. 

As far as I go, it's the cigarettes.
