This is a double-whammy!!

2 problems in 1 solved. Why drugs aren't legalized, and where is the cure for AIDS?


Drugs, of all types, should be legalized. Period.

The only problem is that those scientists who have found the cure for AIDS, need to use those multi-million dollar grants they are still getting in the name of research, to focus their attention on other, more important issues concerning society in general. (If you are a scientist, or you are simply offended by this statement, fast forward to the end of this blog.)

Here is one reason why drugs aren’t legalized;

There is no immediate scientific method to be able to prove you are under the influence of any kind of drug. There is a breathalyser test for sobriety when it comes to alcohol where they are immediately able to prove exactly how many percentage points you are over when they administer the test. That is why it is legal.

The only test for, let’s say weed, is how fast you are driving your car. It is common knowledge that most people drive way below the speeding limit when they are high, but unless they have an immediate and scientific method to measure how stoned a person is, it will not hold up in court. Until the law has a way of proving how messed up you are from doing drugs, short of blood tests or from you running around the city naked screaming about how the trees are coming after you, it will remain illegal.


I remain sympathetic for those who are inflicted with the HIV/AIDS virus, and this might sound like a conspiracy theory, but I refuse to believe that science, in today’s society with all of our technology, has not found a cure for it.

They are working on finding a cure! Bullshit! Every time you buy a pink ribbon, or whatever colour ribbon it is, where do you think your money is going to? How many celebrities have donated $1 million and more dollars? Where is that money going, seriously?

Let me put this into perspective. Say that you are at work one day, and you have a certain quota of work to do and you get paid by the hour. Now let’s say that you have finished all of your day’s worth of work within the first two hours of your eight hour shift. Do you leave work to go home, knowing that as soon as you leave the building you stop getting paid, or do you stay around for the last six hours knowing you’ll get paid to play Minesweeper on the computer?

So, as a company that is receiving research grants from a good variety of organizations to find a cure for AIDS, do you stop and tell the world that you have found a cure for AIDS and get hero status, maybe even a plaque or Nobel Peace Prize, or do you continue to receive countless donations and make huge profits selling 20 different types of drugs to keep one person alive who is inflicted by AIDS. Capitalism tells you to do the latter. Go ahead and buy that $2.6 million home you’ve always had your eye on.

Well, if it’s not one thing, it’s another. Humanity is long overdue for a pandemic. Smallpox anyone? Humanity, I am sure will destroy itself in due time, and Mother “Natural Disaster” Nature will be there, with open arms, finally able to take back her planet.
