Why is the DEA teaching people how to make heroin?

This title isn’t clickbait.
The government organization that has been entrusted with keeping drugs off our streets has detailed instructions online, that anyone can access, detailing how to grow opium, isolate the active alkaloids in it, and then convert those into pure heroin.

This would be humorous if they weren’t locking people up as we speak for growing their own pot. Not to mention that it’s incredibly irresponsible and hypocritical for them to be hosting instructions such as these on our tax dollars.

Which brings us full circle back to one, very pressing question:
Why are we paying our government to teach people how to break the laws that they made?

Ladies and gentlemen, I’m becoming very tired of carrying the burden of an overblown, overfunded, and largely ineffective law enforcement system. I don’t know about you, but I don’t support or condone government for its own sake. These days, something like $0.40 of every dollar is the tax collector’s share. Our forefathers fought the largest military power in the world at the time due to a three percent tax. What happened to that American spirit? Why are we just letting them do this?

The government derives its power from the People. They don’t enrich us. They are a burden to us and everything we work for. I’m not suggesting that we don’t need some form of government. I am suggesting, however, that at current rates, our government is unsustainable. President Reagan said that during his presidency, and since then, it has only gotten larger.

- Harm Reduction 101: How to Stay Safer in a Rigged, Prohibition-Driven Drug MarketDrug prohibition didn’t stop drugs. It just made them more dangerous. Instead of clean, labeled products and honest information, we get mystery powders, fentanyl-adulterated everything, and police budgets bloated on the backs of people who just want to alter their consciousness in peace. The result: preventable deaths, preventable infections, preventable trauma. Harm reduction is the…
- End the Farce: Why Drug Prohibition Has to Die Before More People DoThe war on drugs is not a policy failure. It is a policy success for exactly the people it was designed to benefit: politicians, police unions, prison contractors, and corporations that profit from criminalized substances staying illegal or tightly controlled. It’s doing what it was built to do—control, punish, and extract—while hiding behind the language…
- Harm Reduction in a Toxic Market: How to Stay Safer in a Prohibition-Fueled Drug LandscapeProhibition didn’t stop drugs. It just made them more dangerous, more contaminated, and more profitable for the least accountable players in the supply chain. If you design a system where people still want drugs (they do), but everything is driven underground (it is), you don’t get “sobriety by policy” — you get overdoses, tainted supply,…
- Legal For CEOs, Prison For You: The Hypocrisy At The Heart Of Drug ProhibitionLet’s stop pretending the “war on drugs” is about health, safety, or morality. It’s about control. It’s about who gets to profit from altering consciousness—and who gets caged for it. Governments and corporations are perfectly happy to pump out addictive antidepressants, benzodiazepines, alcohol, and gambling apps, then clutch their pearls when someone microdoses LSD or…

It sounds serious, it sounds moral, and it sounds……
