During the trial it was revealed that McDonald’s knew that heating their coffee to this temperature would be dangerous, but they did it anyways because it would save them money. When you serve coffee that is too hot to drink, it will take much longer for a person to drink their coffee, which means that McDonald’s will not have to give out as many free refills of coffee. This policy by the fast food chain is the reason the jury awarded $2.7 million dollars in punitive damages in the McDonald’s hot coffee case. Punitive damages are meant to punish the defendant for their inappropriate business practice.

Additionally, Morphine, as I said, was illegal at the time. Her tylenol was the best she could do at the time.
Not sure which sources are you regurgitating, since Morphine was legal for medical use, and you completely glossed over Metamizole.
Sounds like the “War on Drugs” talking points, that have so effectively spread illegal (and highly profitable) opioid abuse in the US.
It was India in the 1950’s dude
