And Huxley Is Giggling In His Grave

& huxley is giggling in his grave if aldous was still alive, he’d laugh himself to death when confronted with the new evidence that Zogenix’s brand new spanking drug “Zohydro,” is yet another installment in mankind’s race to create “soma,” the government sponsored drug he wrote of in Brave New World, which would send us all into an anesthetized oblivion, so much so that eating, sleeping & sex would hold second priority to its ingestion, bearing “All the advantages of Christianity and alcohol; none of their defect.” and the mad doctors in big pharma are working night & day to pump out this new prescription opiod narcotic--- a drug containing “10 times the amount of hydrocodone as that of Vicodin,” whose pure form would no longer be split with acetaminophen, like those versions that exist today, so much weaker than this new novelty, whose timed-released quality could easily be circumvented, by crushing the drug & hence producing “an intense, immediate high.” there are those voices that no one listens to, like the National Coalition Against Prescription Drug Abuse & the Advocates for the Reform of Prescription Opioids, who claim that one more legal, highly addictive, narcotic, need not be pushed onto the public by government sponsored pharmaceutical companies whose sole purpose is to hook individuals for profit--- how fortunate big pharma is, because if someone did listen to them, one might suppose that all those in prison for the sale, possession or use of narcotics would have to be set free, and our BIG FAT LAND OF THE FREE wouldn’t want that, now would we.
