Culture embraces bondage

More evidence that we live in a drug culture:

I think that chemical dependancy is chemical dependancy. There may be some cases where it is the best option, but those cases are probably quite rare. Chemical dependancy is sad. It is selling yourself into bondage in order to remove an annoying problem. Our culture doesn't look at it that way, but it is true.

We face challenges for a reason. If we mask all of our problems by taking pills, our journey still awaits us, We just don't have any road signs left to guide us.

I forgot to mention: I was very impressed with the drug ads scattered throughout the ABC story.
