I deal in reality, not theoretical BS. Do I drink? No. Do I give a rat's a$$ about people who do? No. Do I want alcohol to be outlawed. I don't care, but it's easier to leave things as they are than to change them because Libertarians wave the "it's not fair" flag.

Life ain't fair. Are drug users' "rights" violated while "alcohol" users' rights are not? Probably. Big deal.

Does this make me a statist? No, it makes me a realist. I reserve to be selective in the fights I pick with Big Brother.

I will support the legalization of drugs, prostitution, etc, etc, when all social programs are cut for "addicts" or "victims" of society.

Do you support banning alcohol because social programs benefit alcohol abusers? If not, why not?

Do I want alcohol to be outlawed. I don't care

So you care about paying for social programs only when drugs other than alcohol are involved. Why is that?

"First they came for the Jews. I was silent. I was not a Jew. Then they came for the Communists. I was silent. I was not a Communist. Then they came for the trade unionists. I was silent. I was not a trade unionist. Then they came for me. There was no one left to speak for me." - Martin Niemöller

So you're conservative when it suits you?
