You bring up some interesting points.

The CIA pretty much controls media and whatnot... Ads and news are just propoganda tools, it's true. I wanna know how ANYONE could even trust the US government after all the BLUEBIRD and MKULTRA & NAOMI operations. THEY OBVIOUSLY TRYING TO CONTROL EVERYTHING THEY CAN. And things that they can't control are not allowed... and they'll do anything to stop the production of these things, wether it means making it illegal or using scare tactics and propoganda. The Earth is turning into big fear sphere... Americans and Canadians especially (With their lack of mystic beliefs) are afriad of EVERYTHING. We all have an irrational fear of something but North Americans can be made afraid of the simplist, least dangerous things. It's funny. "Oh no, them Negroids... and their devil weeds! It's what makes 'em crazy and what makes them harm our white females blah lets just ban the weed... or better yet, eliminate the Niggers!" "No, we can't do that! That would be unconstitutional!"... "Fine but we can still ban that evil plant!"
