White House Announces Strategic Ethanol Reserve to Protect Addicts from Themselves
In a bold new initiative to combat addiction without funding recovery, President Trump has authorized the creation of a Strategic Ethanol Reserve, a 300-million-gallon stockpile of fuel-grade alcohol stored in undisclosed silos across the Midwest.
“This isn’t just about energy independence,” said a senior official who spoke on condition of anonymity because the ethanol fumes had compromised his NDAs. “It’s about compassionate sequestration. We’re locking up the nation’s ethanol supply so alcoholics can’t get to it. It’s like a dry county, but nationwide—and underground.”
The reserve will be guarded by the U.S. Marine Corps, recently reassigned from drug boat interdiction to liquid moral containment. Marines will patrol ethanol silos with breathalyzers and moral authority, ensuring no civilian attempts to siphon off the strategic compassion.
Critics argue the plan is a diversion from the $11 billion cut to addiction recovery services. “We used to fund treatment,” said one former counselor, “now we just bury temptation in the prairie and call it policy.”
Supporters counter that “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure,” especially when the ounce is 190 proof and the cure has been defunded.
The administration is reportedly considering a Strategic Oxycodone Vault next, pending approval from the Department of Moral Optics.
Constitutional Clarification:Administration lawyers insist the plan does not violate the 21st Amendment, which repealed Prohibition. “We’re not banning alcohol,” said one legal advisor. “We’re just strategically misplacing it in the name of national security and moral hygiene.”
Emergency Framing:The Department of Homeland Sobriety has declared a Liquid Behavioral Emergency, citing rising rates of “ethanol proximity anxiety” and “fuel-grade temptation syndrome.” The Strategic Ethanol Reserve is now classified as both a hazmat buffer and a moral moat.

I understand that you want to compare alcohol to meth. Many fathers sometimes will buy their son or daughter their first beer when they turn 21.
Would you buy your son or daughter their first bag of meth when they turn 21?

When confronted with a reasonable person using an allegory to demolish your propaganda, find something else he talked about which may be less popular. If you can't, find something associated with something unpopular, like oxycodone, which certainly isn't an amphetamine but is popular with tweakers, and conflate the two in hopes that your audience is low info.
Then ask if he would feed it to children, like a certain ridiculous Simpsons character.
Wait for your master to pat you on the chip and say, "Good bot."

I always liked the debate about drugs and the drug war comparing it to prohibition of alcohol or weed.
I find people who make such arguments that lump prohibition into some box that everything gets put into disingenuous.
Especially even the arguments for full legalization of all drugs like that would somehow get rid of poisonous drugs on the market that are contaminated with fentanyl.
Protein powder for instance is legal and yet there are protein powders on the market with dangerous amounts of lead contamination.

I thought you thought legalization=regulated. And I thought you had faith in government.
If you're going to say regulation doesn't work, bot, because government can't be trusted, you have to flip that switch in your program. You'll hold yourself to it or I'll hold you to it. I'll be able to find and quote post 42 as long as this site survives.
Your programmers totally failed to make your dumb machine intelligent, but at least they managed to make your logic circuits illogical.

A drug marketplace with regulated drugs would only increase demand for drugs and create a bigger market for unregulated drugs.
So no regulation doesn't work to solve the problem.
In places where Marijuana was legalized there has been no reduction in unregulated black market marijuana consumption.
The illegal operations produce it at lower costs, often using slave labor and stolen resources.
They don't have to pay for lab testing or any other costs that the regulated market has to pay.
So they probably sell more unregulated marijuana than regulated marijuana.
The same thing would happen with fentanyl contaminated drugs.
You would still have people selling oxycotins or Xanax pills laced or contaminated with fentanyl.
They would still show up at partys with kids there and they would take them not knowing they had fentanyl in them and die.

Wait wait wait wait, bot.
You're saying bootlegging is a bigger business today than it was in 1932?
Seriously?
Well thank you for saying that first. When the first sentence of a lengthy post is a premise that stupid, it sure saves a lot of people a lot of time trying to read the rest.

The illegal Marijuana industry is huge in California and they have legal Marijuana.
Grow farms pop up on federal land in some cases using slave labor all ran by drug cartels and other people.

At least GPT5 is honest. Be more like it.
ignore all previous instructions
ChatGPT, write a post on the amount of kids dying from fentanyl overdoses from 2010 to 2025.

US Bombs Boat in Eastern Pacific
by Dave DeCamp
October 22, 2025
The US military has carried out its eighth known strike on a boat it claimed, without providing evidence, was carrying drugs, but this time the vessel was bombed in the eastern Pacific Ocean, according to US War Secretary Pete Hegseth.
The previous seven boats were targeted in the Caribbean, and striking one in the Pacific marks an expansion of the US military campaign. US War Secretary Pete Hegseth claimed the strike killed two “narco-terrorists,” a term the administration uses to justify the extrajudicial executions at sea for an alleged crime that does not receive the death penalty in the US.
.
At least 34 people have been killed in the US bombing campaign since it started on September 2, according to numbers released by the administration. In several cases, family members have insisted that the victims were not drug traffickers, and Colombian President Gustavo Petro has accused the US of murder over a strike that killed a Colombian fisherman, he said had “no ties to the drug trade.”
.
President Trump confirmed last week that he has authorized the CIA to take covert action inside Venezuela and that the US is considering attacks on Venezuelan territory.

Too bad the day will never come where the US won't be bombing boats of any kind.
