" ... it seems to me perfectly in the cards that there will be within the next generation or so a pharmacological method of making people love their servitude, and producing… a kind of painless concentration camp for entire societies, so that people will in fact have their liberties taken away from them but will rather enjoy it, because they will be distracted from any desire to rebel by propaganda, brainwashing, or brainwashing enhanced by pharmacological methods." - Aldous Huxley, 1961 lecture, California Medical School

Rumsfeld's Legacy
I think that we will best remember Don Rumsfeld for his succinct set of favored quotations, known as "Rumsfeld’s Rules."  The original version was prepared in 1974 – and one regrets that these nuggets of pith weren’t finalized then and there, that Rumsfeld had not been content to simply push artificial sweeteners through the FDA, and make boatloads of money. - Karen Kwiatkowski

Alice Does Prescriptions!
(written by lil deb, 2002)

“One pill makes you larger and one pill makes you small, and the ones that mother gives you don’t do anything at all. Go ask Alice... when she’s 10 feet tall...” Jefferson Airplane, White Rabbit

Alice is 10 feet tall now... but she doesn’t live here anymore. She’s been in rehab for decades, but has found some new pills. They aren’t called white crosses, orange sunshine, black beauties, ecstacy, or even ganga... They're little “blue pills”, “purple pills” or some nasty pink shit... generically known as: A PRESCRIPTION! “They come in so many varieties that one hardly knows where to begin to find the right color match for a particular malady. One gets you up and the other brings you down and many may even kill you... one way or another.
Prescription drugs kill more people than all illegal drugs, combined!

Alice’s new drug pusher is called a DOCTOR. This once noble profession has degraded into “High” class drug dealing. Their “colors“ are white... trench-coats which, depending on length (of gown), allows them to hand out pills to every Dick, Jane, Bush and Pecker that comes in with a whiny voice.

Obviously, many people cannot seem to change their way of life, preferring to take a pill they know absolutely nothing about, other that what is sold to them on TV (but most likely, knows more about the "danger" of the current drug fad) yet it's more likely to kill them than illegal drugs. And IF they ask their “doctor” about the dangers of the pill they're taking, they’re told “it’s ok - no big deal”, let’s see how it works... come back in a couple of months!  How often do they actually tell patients to stop taking them?  Like mental "doctors", you rarely "get well"... ya gotta keep going back... keeping these drug-king-pins in operation!

Prescribing multitudes of pills, it could take years for doctors, or patients, begin to understand the benefit (if there is one), amid all of the side affects. When a patient realizes it may be doing more harm than good, the “doctor” says “you can’t go off of it”. Huh? “Alright, try this, see if this pill helps that little side affect”. Meanwhile, at his next free 'tini lunch, the white jacketed pusher accepts mugs, pens and probably monetary kickbacks, for every “scrip” written and/or filled!
DOCTOR you say?  Sorry, it’s now the new & improved Pharma-Gang. Now Playing in your neighborhood!

“When the men on the chessboard get up and tell you where to go... And the white knight is talking backwards and the red queen’s on your head... Remember what the door mouse said... Feed your head...” Jefferson Airplane, same great song.
Imagine: The white knight is the doctor, the red queen is Czar and the door mouse is the little voice in your head... saying: Wake up!

Your Kids are the new demographic. They're watching for that overly controlled pent-up anger/energy, to make an “out-of-control” addict of your child with the prescribed Dumb Down Tabs (DDT), while captive in government schools. Now dispensing in your friendly Little Tykes Scrip Center, or with his hand held “Pause” dispenser, compliments of: Phizer, Ely Lilly, Navartis, and all the other Pharma-Gang members in this outrageous money sucking propaganda machine, that those with a few aches and pains, gas and bloat, menstrual cramps, allergies and heartburn (all termed as “diseases” now) have bought into... rather than changing one’s diet... or lifestyle!

The new War on Pharms and, of course, a Pharma-Czar will replace those nasty illegal drugs, because they have already proven to be much more profitable to the Pharma-bored members than any illegal ganga ever hoped to acheive! And “they” have us frightened of Meth Labs?!
What a load of placebo's that is!

Expect "drugs" like marijuana to be legalized only when those, who already "control" the drug, are in place to act as a dispenser, a la cigarettes.

Yes, absolutely, there are some people who need certain drugs for various problems. But an overwhelming amount of people are taking some sort of pill(s), for things that can be solved by real food (not corporate "phood"), exercise, and maybe some self-reflection. By the way, this article was written quite a few years ago, after discovering the "links" between government & pharmaceutical corporations and how they get drugs "approved", or dis-approved, by the FDA, itself a questionable gov. agency.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

And here we come to the vital distinction between the advocacy of temperance and the advocacy of prohibition. Temperance and self-control are convertible terms. Prohibition, or that which it implies, is the direct negation of the term self-control. In order to save the small percentage of men who are too weak to resist their animal desires, it aims to put chains on every man, the weak and the strong alike. And if this is proper in one respect, why not in all respects? Yet, what would one think of a proposition to keep all men locked up because a certain number have a propensity to steal? - Percy Andreae, "A Glimpse behind the Mask of Prohibition" [1915]

No drug, not even alcohol, causes the fundamental ills of society.
If we're looking for the sources of our troubles, we shouldn't test people for drugs,
we should test them for stupidity, ignorance, greed and love of power  -  P.J. O'Rourke
