Question: do the goverment create drugs to control peoples minds?

Hi gb1, interesting idea.

No they don’t. Let me explain why! There are many reasons… firstly, no drugs exist which can control someone’s mind. I don’t think that it would be possible to ever have a drug that gives someone direct control over another mind. Secondly, the cost of doing so would be enormous…. some modern anti cancer drugs can cost around £140,000 per person per year. Imagine the cost of doing that for 65,000,000 people! At the moment they can barely afford to provide a decent array of anti cancer drugs, let alone finding the time and money to do this. And lastly, to what end? Why would they bother to go to all this effort? There are much easier and cheaper ways of influencing people’s thoughts… just ask Rupert Murdoch! 😛
