“alcohol”

It’s bad enough to pay government charity to any alcohol addict wasting away at home, I’m not interested in adding drug addicts to the mix.

Supreme court has already said benefits can’t be denied to drug addicts. Several states have tried that.

Get government out of the charity business and then talk to me about legalizing drugs. To me, the sequence is critical, just like when I say don’t talk to me about amnesty until the border is secured.

To make things “fair” for the drug crowd, I’d rather see alcohol made illegal again than see drugs made legal in a welfare state.

Drugs should only be legalized where there is no government charity.

Including the addictive mind-altering drug alcohol ... right?

Are you interested in subtracting alcohol addicts from the mix?

False - the Supreme Court has not ruled on any such law.

Our last ban on alcohol had the primary effect of enriching criminals - rather like our current ban on marijuana.
