Sure, I have a criminal conglomerate, but those mofos are hardcore.
And because of that, I reward you with racing.

Trust me, as the chairman of the biggest criminal conglomerate known to man: I shudder at families like the Sacklers . They’re worse than us.

Wow, who’d of thought Mark Zuckerburg posts on Oppo? Joking, but seriously, these people are legal drug Lords and it’s pretty disgusting that the policies of our country and medical industry support them.

The thing that amazes me about the “opiate crisis” is how the conventional response has changed since I was a kid, from “fuckin’ junkies, lock ‘em up and throw away the key or let ‘em drop dead, no big deal either way” to “oh dear, look at the poor victims, unwittingly addicted to powerful psychotropic drugs through no fault of their own, can’t somebody help these unfortunate people?”
John Ehrlichman was domestic policy advisor to Richard Nixon, and as a result he spent 18 months in the penitentiary. In 1994 he recalled:
“The Nixon campaign in 1968, and the Nixon White House after that, had two enemies: the antiwar left and black people.
“You understand what I’m saying? We knew we couldn’t make it illegal to be either against the war or black, but by getting the public to associate the hippies with marijuana and blacks with heroin, a nd then criminalizing both heavily, we could disrupt those communities. We could arrest their leaders. raid their homes, break up their meetings, and vilify them night after night on the evening news. Did we know we were lying about the drugs? Of course we did.”

Nah, I’m the guy keeping Zuck honest. Frankly, running a massive criminal conglomerate is supposed to make me millions of opponents as much as it makes me trillions, but in reality, I give a shit, which means I only really have a few hundred billion bucks and a hundred enemies.
