    Moved to the US recently. I think this is how business works over here.

    Hurray! I'm so glad that I am finally able to comment on this socially critical and satirical sketch! I really did rush to make it to the comment section. Traffic was terrible though, goodness me...

    Stephen Fry's a lot like John Cleese in this.

    This exact comparison is made in the book, "Sapiens" - economics and legal fiction and religion. A collective belief that enables humanity to organize beyond their immediate social circle.

    This is how psychiatric drugs are being marketed. The only difference is that street drug-dealers are usually more ethical than psychiatrists and their product less dangerous.

    They were onto something with this, just replace cocaine with ritalin and heroin with adderall.

      FirsToStrike you have it the other way around mate!!
      Replace Cocaine with Adderall (both are speed), and H with Ritalin since both have a calming sedating effect 😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳

      @@danielbrown1724 No, not to be a stickler but, they're actually both "uppers." if you wanted to find the legal "equivalent" to heroin and cocain you could mention:
      Uppers:
      Ritalin AND adderall (as well as caffeinated drinks ... and ginger based green teas)
      Downers:
      Muscle relaxers, pain-killers, sleeping medication, alcohol and foods containing tryptophan. They all have THAT effect
      There you go, you're welcome! :)
