Namaste and welcome to the Quiet Mouse Strikes Back. I want to say a quick thank you to all those across the globe for reading my past blogs, sharing them with friends and family, and helping to spread an important message to help awaken our brothers and sisters that are still asleep in the Matrix. Today I want to share a simple idea of a simple truth... That for the most part Americans are pretty much drug addicts...
Now before you go getting all defensive and pissed off, please hear me out. I can hear the peanut gallery murmuring... Let's get this going
It. can be proven that the only real "feelings" of happiness we get as humans come from two chemicals:
serotonin and dopamine. That being said I'm going to bring it back full circle to the aforementioned topic. EVERYONE has a vice that releases these two chemicals. We live in a society full of junkies, many of whom are in denial of their addiction. Why is it so difficult for people to admit that America is the largest user of drugs on the planet? Why can we not just admit that we, as a nation, run the drug game?
Whether it's cannabis, heroine, cocaine, methamphetamine, Ecstasy, caffeine, crack, alcohol, tobacco, psychedelics, adrenaline, exercise, pharmaceutical pills, gambling, shopping, or whatever... Americans have a serious addiction to dopamine and serotonin.
Honestly, there aren't that many straight edge people out there that don't do drugs these days. I hear people claim that they don't, but if you've ever taken a Tylenol over the counter, you've taken a drug. Just because the gov't allows you to do some legal pills (with a SHIT TON OF SIDE EFFECTS) vs. making a more natural substance like cannabis illegal doesn't mean shit really, especially considering oxycodone is now the most abused drug on the entire planet, far surpassing all other "illegal" drugs. On top of all that, our own gov't is fully involved in the drug trade from the pharmaceutical industry (see "say no to pharmaceutical drugs" blog) to the CIA getting busted at countless drug raids selling dope like heroin, cocaine, and crack, especially in inner city areas with higher concentrations of blacks and Hispanics.
So you might think I'm here to bust on the alphabet agencies. You'd be wrong. I honestly think it's natural for us as humans to seek stress relief in the form of the aforementioned drugs. What is wrong is the villainization of decent American citizens as being criminals for buying and using the drugs that our gov't facilitates in the sale of. My question is why can't we, as a nation, reap the rewards and profits from this drug game, since it obviously ISN'T going away any time soon? Why can't we redeem ourselves as a nation and just ADMIT THE TRUTH? Is it because secretly deep down inside we don't want to admit our own hypocrisy by confessing the truth?
I've seen the most devout religious people succumb to the pressures of daily stress, followed by drinking alcohol, smoking, and self medicating on pills, but then want to get all uppity against other individuals who smoke cannabis, in particular. In one way or another it seems our society has a real problem admitting that it needs help. In my opinion, we should take example of nations like Portugal and Holland who have decriminalized drug use, and tada... use actually went DOWN, NOT UP. If it's really a problem then why don't we have MORE options available, besides jail, to help rehabilitate junkies?!? Why can't we treat it as a medical issue, as they have AA to help alcoholics, for those who want help beating their addiction? It HAS WORKED for other nations, so why couldn't it work here? Why do we insist on criminalizing non-violent offenders while rapists and murderers are getting much less jail time and police attention?
The short and simple answer is that there is too much money being made by keeping drugs illegal. The "war on drugs" has hurt this nation as much or worse than the overseas wars waged based on lies. This war is no different, as it is also based upon lies. The TRUTH is that WAR, of any kind, generates HUGE PROFITS for those interested parties that wish to make lots of cash, usually at the expense of tax-payers. The war on drugs keeps supply of the drugs low enough to cause the street price to go UP. The gov't controls the SALE, DISTRIBUTION, and thus reaps the insane profits. LOW SUPPLY + HIGH DEMAND = MORE $$$$. That's simple economics and it doesn't take a rocket scientist to follow the logic. Again, follow the money trail to the rich white men to see how the game really works. The world is a stage and we are its actors.
Marijuana is the United States #1 cash crop, so let's cut the bullshit and just ADMIT it. The demand is ALWAYS going to be high because it ACTUALLY WORKS to alleviate stress, anxiety, and pain. Being one of the most versatile plants on the planet it can be grown anywhere and in abundance... which makes it difficult to control the growth and sale of the plant... thus the reason for it being illegal. If EVERYONE could grow it, then the supply would be high and the price would go DRASTICALLY DOWN. THEY can't have that after all, because then the money trail would dry up and the for-profit prisons would lose money, cops would lose money for policing it, tobacco and alcohol would lose money because pot is safer than those two, and on and on we go. THEN, if hemp were legalized for growing, then dozens of other industries like clothing, oil, cotton, manufacturing, etc. would go belly up.
It is disgusting to me how our society is falling into this downward spiral when the solution is right at hand... and it's so obvious. For THOUSANDS of years before prohibition people used cannabis and psychedelics such as magic mushrooms for many uses INCLUDING religious practices that actually HELP people feel closer to the creator. Instead people are mislead, confused, and outright lied to about the "ills" of a simple plant. Meanwhile the pharmaceutical, alcohol, and tobacco industries continue to reap MASSIVE PROFITS and yet THOUSANDS die every single year from their use and abuse. These substances are kept legal because, like war, it is another means of population control that the rich use against the poor, uneducated masses. CONTROL is the key word there, as the rich believe themselves to be the morality police over the peasants (their words, not mine).
This picture above says it all. Our sons and daughters are fighting across the other side of the world for control of opiates, which the pharmaceutical industry thrives on. Remember they are NOT in the business of creating cures, they are in the business of creating CUSTOMERS. They don't give two shits if people are addicted to Vicodin or Percocet... that's just more profit for them.
LEGALIZE in order to save our culture. We cannot afford to succumb any more to this police state of exchanging freedom for a false sense of security. Drugs are NOT the primary problem in this nation,
puppet politicians trying to DESTROY the CONSTITUTION ARE. As I always say, I'm not a proponent of violence and I am not trying to get anyone to do anything irrational. I'm not a terrorist or an enemy of the state, but rather a patriot who sees the flaws and the cracks in the system, this Matrix of lies and deception. Even in a fake democracy, we should get what we want ONCE IN A WHILE... but alas, despite the solutions presented, it is highly unlikely that the situation will change... not until people get outraged and intolerant of the tyranny and oppression. My hope is that we do not get to be like North Korea or China, full blown dictatorship before the veil is lifted and the masses see things for how they truly are: as long as we keep buying into THEIR system, we will forever be slaves to it. Keep thought and questioning alive. It is not only our right to question our leaders and government, but it is our DUTY. Research these issues and form your OWN OPINIONS, please!!!
This has been the Quiet Mouse.
Peace. Love. Respect. Tolerance. Truth.
