Psychedelics and the War on Drugs
lfb.org / By Chris Campbell / Jun 11, 2015
“Eighteen veterans commit suicide every day,” Rene Campos, MOAA Deputy Director of Government Relations said while testifying at the Veterans Affairs Subcommittee on Health in 2011.
Quite the bombshell.
“That is one every 80 minutes,” she went on. “Twenty percent of all suicides in the U.S. are former service members.”
Yes, it’s tragic. But it’s not incurable.
What if I told you that an effective treatment exists? In fact, it has shown an 83 percent success rate against PTSD.
But there’s a problem…
Big Pharma can’t make money from it.
And though having been deemed safer than riding horseback or drinking, it’s classified by Big Gov. as one of the most dangerous drugs on the planet.
Scientists are forbidden from studying it. And physicians can’t even imagine recommending it to patients.
And in the end, veterans suffering from PTSD are left to suffer.
What you’re about to discover, dear LFT reader, is what one prominent English professor, David Nutt, has called “the worst censorship of science ever.”
And it’s another vast casualty of the insane drug war.

First, we’re going to conduct a little thought experiment.
You’re going to step into the shoes of three people. Note how you feel at the end of each scenario.
