Ever heard of the Placebo effect.


Yeah. I'm seriously considering making some phony Viagra to
sell on the black market. :-)


But if you implicitly or explicitly say that it's viagra or whatever,
then if it doesn't have some active ingredients, that's deceptive
advertising.


I don't think the guy at the local watering hole that's buying illegal
black market viagra is going to complain too much about deceptive
advertising! ;-)

So you're in trouble.


Well, I might get in trouble for selling phony illegal black market
drugs. ;-)

But if it _does_ have some active
ingredients, you're in trouble for violating the maker's licensing
rights.


Oh, then just come up with a "supplement", like the guy I knew a few
years ago that had some snake-oil called "Testo-Glan." ;-p

Seems like anyway you turn, you lose.


Yeah, well, it's not like that'd be a new experience for me. ;-)
