The informed and moderate partaking of herbs is not a medical problem. An air of absolutism and elitist fascism is running rampant in the health care profession today. The puritanical dictates of this profession are a threat to the liberty and security of our nation. These issues are far more important than the possible health risks of an herb. They pander to parental fears in an attempt to adopt us all as children of a nanny state. All hail the oligarchy of the doctors, we want to be enslaved by paying top dollar for scripts for the elderly while paying debt service on the money we have to borrow to buy these drugs, even though we know there will not be a dime left for us when we get old. Meantime, the oligarchy will dictate what one may ingest, regardless of what one’s religious faith or the Constitution has to say on the matter.

Not for you.

Yet.

But for me, it is a death sentence. Herb -> Cocaine -> Death, Insanity or Jail (for me). I cannot and will not indulge in any drug, lest I die.

I have a hunch: You are so darned smart, like me, that you get stupid, like me.

You aren't in trouble.

Yet.

I have a hunch someday you will me. I hope I'm wrong.
