The title makes it sound more provocative than it really is. It's like saying "America's Love Affair with Glasses" or "America's Love Affair with Insulin".
The article is actually pretty good. For many Americans Adderall and other stimulates to treat ADHD let us function in society and the shortage was hard on millions of Americans.
"function in society" is a weird way of saying "hammering someone into a productive overworked cogwheel, because heavens forbid that we actually give people unproductive idle time or try to accommodate diversity"
That's a weird way to say "I don't understand the difficulties that people with ADD/ADHD face and how those difficulties still exist during unproductive time."
