If they actually developed a will-power drug, can you imagine how fast the legislatures would move to ban it? Within the first months you'd have dieters and athletes dying, college kids cramming for eighteen hours, and working class 'victims' who chose to slave away at their crummy jobs (which they're already doing with meth amphetamine addiction).

Still, it might wake people up to realize what a brain is exactly.
