Can a Pill Make You Smarter?

Can a Pill Make You Smarter? - Trustworthy, Physician-Reviewed Information from WebMD

Okay, now this i have to chime in on. While it would be great for me to think there really is a solution to the American public, other than a crip/playpen/jolly jumper (for the athletes among us), i know better. While a pill may be able to help you get to bed earlier, so will not drinking 15 cups of coffee and staying up to watch Conan. Furthermore, all that is doing is increasing your alertness and while that is great and does contribute to you not making off handed dumbass comments becuase you were drifiting off to sleep in the middle of your meeting, it doesn't make you smarter, it just makes you less of a jackass. Sure, they believe that breast feeding increases a childs IQ because it is higher in the protiens and nutrients babys need for brain development, and mother should take prenatal vitamins etc; the fact still remains that not only can we not prove the validity of those claims, you're pretty much stuck with what you have after you pass that stage.

The American people want to hear that there is a pill to solve all of their problems. Overweight, no don't go to the gym, take a walk, or just stop fucking over stuffing yourself; go to the doctor and he'll give you a prescription drug that has horrendus side-effects such as liver damage and heart disease, but hey, you'll be slim and best of all you didn't have to lift a finger. Stupid, hey, lets not spend sometime a the library reading books that come from the non-fiction section, lets instead run to the doctor and he'll give you a pill that causes liver damange and heart disease, but hey, at least you didn't have to do any work!
