Independent Thoughts [alnaim.com]

Follow the path of the unsafe, independent thinker. Expose your ideas to the danger of controversy. Speak your mind and fear less the label of "crackpot" than the stigma of conformity. -- Thomas J. Watson, Sr.

    nice find... but still, how the hell would you come up with a scale for the level of harm a certain drug causes? i mean, yeah, some are obvious like heroin, but tobacco? gimme a break. I noticed that GHB rated very low on that scale. why? when GHB is very addictive and harmful. maybe it's because GHB isn't very well known to the public but heroin is very popular? i don't know... it could be that. What i'm really amazed at is that alcohol has always been "ok" with authorities. you get drunk, commit shit you don't even know about, SCREW YOUR LIVER TO HELL, and that's "ok"?
    bottom line, alcohol and Cigarettes sell like hotcakes and they can be easily regulated. other drugs can't. the government can't make a buck with those things. you'll never see alcohol and cigarettes classified as Class A/B/ or C drugs... if they were, they'd be illegal.
    Ofcourse, i must bring this up, anabalic steroids were classified as type C drugs in 1990, after that, the medical community cashed in big time on "anti-aging" drugs... otherwise known as "evil killer anabolic steroids" when some one other than a doctor sells it to you for 1/100 of the price.
    just my 2 cents
