Designer drugs for illness & experimentation: 3D print custom reaction chambers
- gee_totes 14y agosuch a technology will invariably be a nightmare for medical and law enforcement communities This is very true, and the article leads me to imagine home-meth-printing labs. However, if 3D printing does revolutionize the availability of psychotropic drugs, it could be a watershed event that could lead to a rational discussion of drug policy in the United States. ...oh wait, hoping for a rational discussion of anything in the United States is in vain. We are the society of the spectacle. All the more reason to donate to erowid.org today.
- tsotha 14y agoIf you can make meth with 3D printers you'll need a license to buy one and it'll keep track of everything you make. I'm convinced the drug warriors would make the cure for cancer illegal if it was a precursor for meth.
- tomjen3 14y agoAll you need is to smugle one clean 3d printer or convert one existing printer to not record what you make and you can print the next few millions. Besides the political system would have to act fast because the printers are already on the market. Soon the makers will be able to lobby and then they won't restrict them.

As an American who got tired of it and left his friends, family, and homeland behind... I want to remind you that, while incredibly tough, it is possible to go and choose another society to be your own. The world's a big place, and you don't have to continue living in the insane part if you don't want to.
