Hallucinogens & Psychedelics - Making a come back

From this New York Times Article, "Scientists are taking a new look at hallucinogens, which became taboo among regulators after enthusiasts like Timothy Leary promoted them in the 1960s with the slogan 'Turn on, tune in, drop out.' Now, using rigorous protocols and safeguards, scientists have won permission to study once again the drugs' potential for treating mental problems and illuminating the nature of consciousness."

The Hallucinogen of choice for these researchers is psilocybin, the psychoactive ingredient found in magic mushrooms.

Mushrooms containing the active ingredient, psilocybin, grow wild in Balingup, Western Australia.

A Futurist Perspective - Western Australia (WA) 2020

The future is not here yet and so we have every opportunity to influence the outcome, either positive or negative from the perspective of the people who have to live in this great state of WA Western Australia.

You can make a difference so don't wait for the politician's to make decisions. Their decisions are usually too little too late costing far too much and often heavily influenced by vested political interests.

Aboriginal figure skating dance by Russian Olympic Team

Aboriginal culture is proving to be one of Australia's most successful cultural exports.

Corruption and hypocrisy in West Australian politics

We hear about corrupt politicians all the time and in this regard Western Australia is no different to the rest of the world. If you've ever wondered where the following quote comes from, follow the link to the following Economist article.

The psychology of power. Absolutely. Power corrupts, but it corrupts only those who think they deserve it.

The Finks are in Perth. Are we terrified?

The police follow & harass the group, exposing these individuals to behaviour that would be abhorred if it was directed at any other individual or group in the community.

The police want more powers to deal with the criminal element inside these gangs but we will be forced to sacrifice more civil liberties for all in order to provide those additional powers. Liberties do not come without a cost. Sometimes the cost is accepting that certain individuals &/or groups will find ways to control arbitrage situations associated with banned activities/behaviour/psycoactives.

There is always a ‘grey space’ that connects law enforcement and the bad guys. Take a look in the 'grey space' these two groups share.

  • The wearing of patches & badges
  • Initiation/passing out ceremonies’
  • Ability to project power & control
  • Desire for control
  • Association with negative events including violence and death
