the jimmymac attack!

People who have worked with addicts or have had any experience with addiction have usually heard that 'the definition of insanity is continuing to do the same thing over and over and expect different results'. This is what addicts do. They will continue to compulsively repeat the same behavior even when they are suffering from it. They suffer from their addiction and yet they continue to engage in it.
So the powers that be in our society continue to do the same thing although the results are far from desirable. Especially in America the government continues its war on drugs although it is not solving the drug problem. They continue to spend enormous amounts of money on trying to eliminate drugs, drug pushers and addiction. And it is all quite ineffective. Do they consider trying something else? No. It's insanity. And when Canada or Mexico suggest trying something different such as harm reduction the USA cries and goes crazy over the notion that a different approach be offered. America behaves like an addict. America is addicted to oil as George Bush said. America is also addicted to the war on drugs. America is addicted to war. America is addicted to unhealthy food. America is an addict.
