No different to the "War on Poverty" the "War on Drugs"
or the "War on Cancer"


Find something (an emotion, disease, psychoactive chemical, or social
state) which you can't actually have a war against & declare war
against it.

Works every time as we know that nowadays there ain't no cancer, drugs nor
