It seems rational to take them. Its not that we're irratonal, we're trying to be rational, and we've been sold a bag of goods.

People think that because its prescribed by a doctor, its safe, and its approved by the FDA, so its safe. I mean, these are illusory impressions that the public has, and its not true.
