Culture shock discussed

by dryspot

PILL POPPERS; Over-the-counter pill poppers have just recently engaged the public-at-large with a whole new series of diet pills. Weight control pills. Pills for faster growth. Pills for slower growth. Pills for sex. Pills for those who do not care to have sex. Pills for better understanding. Pills for those who find it difficult to try and understand. Pills that can make anyone feel rich. Pills that can make anyone feel terribly ill. Pills that will help you sleep. Pills that can make you wide awake for longer periods of time. Pills that can make you feel half drowsy. And of course pills that can make you feel wholeheartedly high.

These so called miracle pills are soon to come out in pop-up dispensers for easy popping and swallowing. They are all manufactured with the street corner vendor in mind. Quantity has now far surpassed quality in the over-the-counter market where the major drug manufacturers hurry themselves to gain a larger portion of the profits.

The skull with it's cross bones have been removed from off all the American labels leaving many drug customers to wonder what pill is pure poison and what just what dose is the lethal legal limit. I suppose if the shoe fits women should now go unto the higher heels with lower arches. And of course what man ever truly cares about any womens shoe size? This fellowship must know that the F.D.A. has become America's over-the-counter candy store who by now must have a lot of explaining to do when it comes to the birth control pill.
