But anger for drugs is the very engine that pushed this regime in power. If it were to abandon it, Duterte's administration will fall like a house of cards. The same goes with Iran whose revolution and current regime was founded on the basis of anti Americanism. Regimes founded upon hate or scapegoating are often very hard to persuade from deviating from the very actions and styles that brought them to power. It is another reason why China refuses to abandon the communist symbols despite it being purely capitalist, it doesn't want to be viewed as traitors to the revolution.

Again it is a medical issue for doctors, not blind populism to solve.
I remember reading yesterday in a newspaper(*gasp* Newspaper?)that we haven't even achieved 100 days how could we achieved 6 years?
Also in another unrelated note Du30 said he would resign in politics in 6 years.
