    So, you abuse a drug -- caffeine -- for work. Is it also ok to smoke up some meth? That's just Alderall without a prescription.

    Horse slaughter houses are currently legal in the US (they were banned for a while) but there aren't any so horses get shipped to Mexico instead. There is at least one horse slaughterhouse trying to open up in the US but the USDA is foot-dragging the process.
