Too bad there is no oil profits in dead Pharma customers. Even with 40% obesity, the fuel value is not that great.

There's a pill for that.
If you do not like them then don't take them. Pretty simple. Leave my drugs alone. I am an adult. I can make up my own mind which drugs are good for me.

We also incarcerate more of our own people than any other country on Earth.
List of countries by incarceration rate - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

And while I'm on my high horse,
ya like that? ....here's another eye opener:

'Pot Prisoners Cost Americans $1 Billion a Year
The latest numbers are out: nearly 800,000 Americans were arrested
on marijuana charges in 2005. When will the insanity stop?'

Pot Prisoners Cost Americans $1 Billion a Year | Civil Liberties | AlterNet







AND, it's getting worse. The arrest rates for marijuana are going up. Not down. Home of the brave! Land of the free!
Cuz, you must be brave if you want to be free here...

What would you expect from a spiritually bankrupt country!!! Drugs and alcohol are the realm of spirits! Negative spirits!

Repelled by American consumerism/materialism, in India they built an American Temple, where they pray that Americans will become more spiritual one day! Then? Less call for negative spirits!
