Pardon, sir, but free speech might just be the most important thing in a democracy. People vote based upon opinions formed from knowledge. If there is no free speech, there is no free dissemination of knowledge. I can't speak for China but here in America, it is a necessity. I'm quite vexed as to how someone with such a low UID came to have such odd opinions.
I will have to agree to this, though, the pills that kids pick up at raves aren't always MDMA. I would assume that most stories of overdoses come from ecstasy heavily laced with stimulants. If MDMA were legalized, it would be quite a bit easier to get something safe.
As an American, I've visited only two countries, those closest to me. I've found that people as a whole are mostly decent, no matter their country. Though those in the tourism industry often are unpleasant, while wearing masks of politeness.
Nine dollars! That's a steal!
Last time I looked, they tried to sell me one for $20.
Let's not forget their cheap printers with $40 USB cables.
Seems quite odd that they have competitive prices on desktops or laptops while they sell cables for ten times the price.
Pardon me, but if 48 people out of 100 die each year, that's nearly a %50 death rate. I would expect India to have a very tiny population after a few years.

Oh, stop trying to derail the conversation.

I would highly recommend this episode, if only to see Bill Nye slap someone.
