the timboucher experience

Independent scientific evidence repeatedly showing up over the past 50 years reveals that fluoride allegedly shortens our life span, promotes cancer and various mental disturbances, accelerates osteoporosis and broken hips in old folks, and makes us stupid, docile, and subservient, all in one package. There are reports of aluminum in the brain possibly being a causative factor in Alzheimer`s Disease

“One had to cram all this stuff into one’s mind, whether one liked it or not. This coercion had such a deterring effect that, after I had passed the final examination, I found the consideration of any scientific problems distasteful to me for an entire year… It is in fact nothing short of a miracle that the modern methods of instruction have not yet entirely strangled the holy curiosity of inquiry; for this delicate little plant, aside from stimulation, stands mainly in need of freedom; without this it goes to wrack and ruin without fail. It is a very grave mistake to think that the enjoyment of seeing and searching can be promoted by means of coercion and a sense of duty.”

Anyway, the real reason I got on this track was that Bret and I were talking to Mike about how the CIA has allegedly been trafficking drugs for the past 50 years to fund illegal operations untraceably. He had never heard that before, and I was shocked, cause I thought it was common knowledge. Especially the shit about how the CIA funneled crack cocaine to the inner cities in the 80’s to fuck up the ghetto populations. Anyway, it’s hard to find good info on this, because the REAL conspiracy nuts (unlike me) bury the real facts with so much misinformation sometimes that they actually do more harm than good, by obscuring what’s really going on, and making them seem like lunatic outsiders.

Right on, here’s a good quote about illegal drugs, from a page about the CIA involvement:

Because (some) drugs are illegal, there are huge profits to be made in supplying them to those who want or need them. Legalization would eliminate the enormous profits now being made and would provide a social context in which education concerning the use of drugs was not only respectable but also a social obligation. In the meantime the “War on Drugs” works only to keep (some) drugs illegal and to maintain the profits of the traffickers.
