This is the NORMAL progression of drugs One single example is by definition utterly insufficient to establish what is "normal." Even the DEA isn't dumb enough to say 21st century America is identical to 19th century China.

Here is a rebuttal to you. This is the NORMAL progression of drugs when they are not interdicted.The DEA itself gives figures that show a substantial decline in addiction rates in the US between 1880 and 1900, when these drugs were completely legal. See post #6
How do you explain that?
