What would be the most in demand pill in the world?

I remember a probably famous photo of long ago, maybe in the sixties, of a plate with a pill on it.

I would not invest in that.

Present interest seems to go toward immune mechanisms, with the body's cells also able to fix stuff.

People who go for a high with pills will work their way up at any given time re available drugs stollen.

I had an available drug stollen, it was in my stollen purse a day after after a breast cancer general anaethesia surgery. I'd only taken a half of one anyway. No loss, in my situation, but could be horrible for others.

I'd rather things get better for people so they don't need to self medicate, than find a philosophic perfect pill.

Pain has many sponsors, both pill wise and therapy wise, but is also a true horror for a lot of people.

I have really no idea what are you talking about.

is this some sort of English I don't know bout or am I just I too drunk!?

Definitely one to raise average IQ. We need to prevent self extinction the sooner the better.

Well, Fog of Prague, I can't figure you out either, much as some of us don't with other philosophy posters.

I remain mildly interested in that some people I respect are philosophy knowledgeable. By and large, I see a2k posts on philosophy as a field of piffle.

I would like to see a pill that, when taken, you instantly know for a fact whether or not god exists. Bonus: I only need one

( I am starting to like you! )

however both answers would be terrifying. If there is no gos, we are all alone in waste universe. If there is one, how is he like?? And which religion is closest to him?

I am very smart (when I am not drunk) and I do not intend to kill me or anyone else. What do you mean?

The answer is a pill that eliminates the need to sleep.

This one.

Cancer causes so much of the physical (and emotional) pain we have.

Plus, all the billions of dollars that are currently being spent on research could be used for clean energy.

With clean energy, we wouldn't need super strength, as we would have machines to do what we cannot.

how many people right now have cancer?

How many people right now dont want to go to bed?

Remember the question is most in demand.

Wolverine-style regeneration and immortality?

That's the plot to the movie Limitless (2011).

How many people are right now in excrutiating pain, waiting for death to take them? How many others are suffering because the person they love most in life is in such pain and suffering?

I think what would more in demand than staying up is not having a wild fire in your system taking your life at the present, or knowing it will take you in the future, in a horrible way.

I would go along with Fil - a pill that raises the average IQ of every single person on earth, or give them a fountain of youth pill? It's a toss here...

I dont know, but I am guessing that for every one there are at least 300 who would go to great expense to not need to go to bed tonight. Who hate not doing their best work because they are tired. Who would love to be able to downsize and down cost their lives by not needing a room to sleep in anymore.

Fil...if we raised our intelligence, the first thing we might do is to self-destruct.



This is a picture of one of the most vicious, killing animals ever to inhabit planet Earth...swimming in front of a fish.

Why do you think a higher IQ is needed ? With a higher IQ comes a higher chance of suicide, drug abuse, and stress .

Yes all those are true but the price is small if we gone prevent self destruction. We need a better ability to predict the future without it being in your face. Raising averages is needed.
