Current Events > Scenario: Your son creates lethal addictive legal drugs then offers you profits

(+) Yeah! (+)

Your son has created a powerful herbal drug which is like meth on steroids yet somehow defying alll reason it manages to abide by all laws and standards, allowing it to be traded globally with no issue.

The drug is immensely addictive and causes unparralled delusional states of hysteric bliss (at least at first) and is causing tens of millions of people all over the world to die or go insane or ruin their lives in the biggest drug addiction epidemic in history that is only growing.

The success of the drug had made your son a billionaire and while he has distanced himself from you due to his new lifestyle, he has just causally sent one of his aides to give you 3 million dollars. Since you are a parent and all

Like tossing a quarter to a bum outside a 7-11



Would you take the money? or would you refuse it knowing where it has come from?

What does CE think?

Id be more impressed at the fact I have a son old enough to do this. Is he 12?

Sure, hard drugs should be legalized/decriminalized anyways

I'm pretty sure this scenario is impossible while the US has its war on drugs going. Hed get taken down so fast his head would spin.

his drug (well call it Rocket for short) managed to abide by the letter of the law of every restriction, commity, standard, law it went against. Your son was a crafty wet bandit

There is lobbying to ban it now but the damage is done by this point. it's an epidemic

Its already made and he is going to keep doing it regardless of me.

I could at least bunker myself and a few loved ones up before things go from bad to society collapses

Take the money, and go visit him, tell him I am proud of him for the population control he has achieved. Then slice his throat/kill him and take over his empire cackling like Palpatine in ROTS.
