Congress Considering Poisoning Drugs
The US Congress is considering using toxic fungi to kill off drugs. This idea is so bad that even the Drug Czar disagrees with it. Among the problems is the fact that fungi are non-discriminate: they will kill marijuana, poppies, wheat, corn, cows and people alike. Another is that mycotoxins are considered biological warfare agents: applying them to crops in other countries would be quite literally an act of war.
Oh, but who cares? It’s better than thousands of people die than that a single person achieve an altered mental state. Unless that mental state is altered with alcohol, caffeine or nicotine: those are cool.
