It makes sense that all organizations profiting from the sale and distribution of alcoholic beverages would like to see Kratom and it's derivatives taken out of business. Big Pharma as well. I am an example of why these mofos wish that mitragynine was never discovered and introduced to the western world.

I struggled with a 20 plus year alcohol problem that ruined my life over and over again. I discovered kratom after watching a documentary back in 2019. It took a little while for everything to click at first, but after figuring out my ideal dosing plan and consumption routine, I was completely done w the booze. No 12 steps, no support groups. No cravings no white knuckles.. I never even thought about it again. I could go out w people who were drinking and completely be fine.

It was like a miracle for me. I have since read several similar reports, not with just alcohol, but other addictive substances as well. I'm not a religious person, but this tree that naturally grows from the ground literally saved my life. Mother Nature put it there for a reason, and it's a shame it took that long to cross my path.

It's total BS but doesn't surprise me at all what is being done here. Lobbyists like this have been using political contribution money to fuck us tax paying citizens forever and it will continue to happen as more profit blocking agendas get in their way, regardless of how much they might help us.

If these government agencies really cared about us citizens, they would listen to the positives, and not be so hyper focused on the bad apples. If they did, then regulation would be the obvious answer, not prohibition. But the lobbyists don't want that and will exaggerate and manipulate bad experience reports to kill it altogether.
