WAR ON DRUGS
I don't know why alcohol and prescription drugs are separated from other mind
altering drugs. That's what they are – drugs. Instead of trying to
classify drugs into dangerous vs. benign, addictive vs. medicinal,
illegal vs. socially acceptable, we need to ask the question “Why
are drugs so popular?”
The
only reason I can come up with is that they imitate the feelings that
a person experiences when he/she falls in love. The euphoria,
sensitivity, excitement and determination that are produced from all
kinds of love (from parental to romantic) can be artificially created
by using various chemicals. The only problem is that none of it is
real. A lot of money is made by selling artificial experiences to desperate people who have been starved for the life that has been stolen from them by society.
The
only way that drugs will lose their appeal is when human beings choose
the real over the fake, but real love threatens the very foundations of this world, where security and happiness are sold to us by fraudsters and spin doctors. This is what the real "War on Drugs" should be - a "War on Deception".
