Headline Of The Day

From a story in the NY Times:

Drugs Help Tailor Alcoholism Treatment



Oh goodie - people susceptible to substance abuse will be given substances to stem their susceptibility to substance abuse.

That should work swell.

We live in a culture that looks for the easy way out of things.

We also live in a culture that is looking for a way to cash in on everything.

Personal transformation and spiritual, emotional and physical recovery from addiction?

Nah, that's too hard.

Here's a pill for your abuse problem.

If that doesn't work, we'll give you another pill.

Then another.

Just keeping drugging until your cravings for a drink go away.

And keep paying for those drugs while you're at it.

Soon you'll be all better!

So long as you continue to pay for and take our drugs, of course...
