They are more evil than the Cocaine Cartel of Medellin: at least we can say, in favour of the cocaine barons, that those that take cocaine are not _forced_ to take it in the first place. Medical research should never be allowed to be controlled by private companies. If there is any reason to fight Capitalism and sponsor Communism, those Drug Dealers are number one in my list. > I imagine that history will > judge the people who made that happen very harshly > indeed, actually. > I imagine that History will be amazed at the passivity of the early XXIers, who allowed the Drug Barons to monopolize their lifes forever.
