As an individual who used ephedra to get through 2 and a half years of
undergraduate degrees in the time it takes most people to complete one
degree....I don't mind ephedra...when it is used to cram for studies
and finish finals....Ivy League Universities have cocaine..why
shouldn't broke kids have an advantage. My two and a half degrees are
in art history, design, and painting.

The problem is, American politics aren't about change. Ephedra is
banned, a meth epedemic arises, and meth production is moved out of
the country to Mexico and China. This is all being done on purpose.

It's the same model that was used for the crack epidemic on a smaller
scale with African Americans during the 80's with the Reagan
administration. You create a fake war...drain funds from both sides
fighting the drug, move production out of the country...where you can
skim from the profit without American lawyers looking in. It was done
in the 80's moving coke use to crack use and its being down now with
ephedra, pseudoephedrine, and methamphetamine.....The U.S. looks like
a hero fighting the drug...and makes a profit at the same time. That
is how it works.

I've used ephedra to get through college, and I used ephedra to get
off meth in my 20's (it's a great way to get addicts off the hard
stuff). Ephedra for broke students and Ephedra as methadone for meth
is not being researched for a reason. Cause hard core addicts mean
cash for the people fighting the problem and the people creating
it...and neither of them are broke students.

Not only that...think of how lazy everyone gets without
stimulants...at a time when our government has hit an all time low.
Its the same game, same story since the late 70's till now. Its not a
mystery why ephedra was banned....you either give it up or try the
pure crystal down the street (manufactured in Mexico and China these
days). The government gets a cut, you're a drug addict on
Intervention, and everyone makes a dollar off you....but you. That's
pure Capitalism...pure and simple.

No one cares about the dangers of Ephedra...but you can make more cash
in the United States by banning it.
