As I've discussed before, Freedom as defined by the U.S. government, can be proven over and over, to be false. It is simply a word the system has adopted to use as chaff against our missiles of logic. Much like an antagonized chimpanzee might fling leaves and dirt at an opponent to keep him distracted or blinded, even appear more intimidating. It is a fact, in my eyes, that the government opposes the masses, rather than actually seek out the greater good for them as a people.
Whether or not the big man is truly hostile towards the common man,(which proof can be provided to show), is not today's business. Yes today's business is in parallel to my previous post about gay rights. The big question here is: Is America a truly free country? The answer? Ehh...It's a relative thing.
Most of the yes and no bullshit we encounter during this argument can be filed under one of four categories, though most of them will overlap considerably. Misinformation, prejudice, hypocrisy, and greed. The four cornerstones of any establishment that sees itself above the common people. And now, without further ado, I present to you, a pocketful of examples.
The War On Drugs: Not only is this phrase an impossibility, but also a farce. It was and remains today a phrase coined by the presidency to make it appear more legitimate in aggressive policies. It is the brother to 'The War on Terrorism', yet another idiotic phrase used to deter assholes who bring logic into the situation. Logically, it works against the publishers. Any place you revoke the main means of recreation, namely drugs, the people will invent other ways to have fun, and in this case, get their fix. In a brilliant stroke of irony, without the drugs, people can actually USE their brains to invent better ways to get high. During prohibition, there was a man who actually invented an engine that ran on alcohol. Many will attribute this to a leading cause of the end of prohibition, but it makes sense. "Well, I have this liquor lying around and I can't drink it. Fuck, what happens if I pour it into my Jalopy?"
In all seriousness, most people who oppose drugs have either never tried them (properly), or they believe that drugs do so much harm to your body that they're not even worth trying in the first place. Simple misinformation. The prejudice lies in thinking that only certain stereotypes of people take certain drugs, and while this may actually be true, they have no right to believe it after trying to force diversity onto college brochures and fill offices with diversity requirements. The hypocrisy, and the best part of this baffling and quizzical issue in my opinion, is that plenty of higher ups have been caught red handed abusing drugs. Drugs such as Oxycontin, which you can get for the fraction of the price the yuppies addicted to them pay for them, over the counter. Studies have emerged over the past several years, showing an increase in certain drug use among the wealthy, as opposed to certain drug use among the poor. And finally, the greed in this subject lies easily spotted among legalization. Every pothead can tell you that one of the truest reasons that government cannot legalize marijuana is that they can't put a tax on it. It holds water. We all know how closely snuggled the drug companies and government are. Fuck, they even invented a cure for cancer in the 1930s, and the corrupted medical associations covered it up. They wanted to treat cancer, not cure it. Extortion through a third party.
Now, I bring drugs up in particular because I have a comparable example to America's level of freedom. Why can't any FREE citizen of this FREE country be FREE to choose which drugs they put into their body. Government is even cracking down on private farmers because they believe that the raw milk is harmful (which it isn't). Plus, you eventually get a whole lot less people to deal with if folks are overdosing left and right. It would be a wonderful way to test who has the genes to pass on to the next generation. Eventually if everyone was doing drugs, their children would become immune to getting high, and we would simply step out of the era like a pair of loafers with dog shit on them.
In several countries throughout Europe, there are drug bars. That's right; places where you can go to get your rocks off. Nearly everything is legal there. But it doesn't end with a deal, no. After purchasing drugs, you have to sit and smoke that joint or live out your heroin trip right there in the bar. They actually take responsibility for the people they deal to. Whereas we here in America let drunkards walk right out of bars, keys in hand, and then wonder why drunk driver mortality rates get higher each year.
Personally I think there would be a lot less need for drugs if government would shut the fuck up. Leaving someone alone in a room with a ton of heroin just means that they'll eventually get bored of heroin. So, bottom line. Is America, in the context of drug use and bodily choices, free? No. Is it free in the overall sense of personal choices and agendas? We'll find out in part three.
