Excellent.
Starting January 20, 2009, McCain's addiction to Viagra might have a useful side effect: next time the White House develops a leak in its roof, McCain will be able to save those Saudi Arabian carpets from mould.

Lets put the mentally ill in jail. This is what the drug war amounts to, halfway. The other half is called: War on the people. The CIA imports the hard drugs and busts you for them, making weed, the hardest to control, on the top of the list of harmful substances, even though it has two side effects: a very slight loss in lung capacity and short term anger is the side effect of deprivation. The seeds are the most nutritional substance in the world, and the plant it the toughest in the world. Look it up.

Just one man's opinion, but please stop with this vast conspiracy theory.
The CIA is not out to get you. The FBI has files on you only because you perpetuate these myths.

It's not about there being a sinister conspiracy, though certainly that's how many anti-establishment types present it, but rather about a system that has slowly over time been built up in which certain people benefit and have a lot to gain in keeping things the way they are. There's no dark secret council that's planning evil - just powerful people who WILL act if their world is shaken, without concern for laws or morals.
Again, the intention isn't always evil, but the results may be. The "war on drugs" is about nuts who really believe in the message being given the means by those with wealth and power to perpetrate it, in order to keep those benefactors wealthy and powerful. It is exactly the joke this video implies that it is.

Drugs can be a wonderful thing. Read some Terence McKenna sometime and see.
The only reason some drugs are illegal and others are not is due to taxes and social mores.

Drugs can be good. Drugs can save lives. But the aggressive advertisement of drugs to people who know nothing about their mechanisms or the symptoms of the disorders for which they are prescribed is not irresponsible. It's beyond irresponsible and exists in the same realm as telling a child his nuts will fall off if he doesn't give you his lollipop. It's blackmail. Doctors are the only people who should worrying about diagnoses and prescriptions.
