I can’t help but wonder if we wouldn’t have been better off just letting the druggies have their pot 50 years ago. Regulate it, and keep them from hurting themselves or others and let them burn out.
Instead we have far, far worse drugs today that we can’t even control, organized crime worse than prohibition, and far more death and destruction.
The older I get, the more I think our cure is worse than the original disease.

Although I believe free, abet stupid people should be able to kill themselves with whatever they choose, I don’t want to support them and their families as they kill themselves.
If we don’t support them, they will turn to crime and there goes the reason for ending the ban on drugs in the first place. Dog chase tail.

That's supposed to happen with age - it's called "wisdom." :-)
You’re quite correct of course. But the nanny staters are such control freaks they’d rather have drug gangs in charge of the drug trade than the legitimate free market.
