[Tell It Right]

I agree wholeheartedly.

I'm just saying that I, who leans a bit libertarian, am coming peeved at my fellow libertarians who make out legalizing pot to be more of a freedom issue than ditching the welfare state (what used to be one of our main goals).

IMHO getting rid of the welfare state is critical to truly legalizing drugs or anything else.

Is that their view, or are they just pragmatically investing more attention in the more winnable battle?

Not sure what you mean by "critical;" we certainly ought not hold one liberty hostage to another, as no-legalization-until-welfare-ends does.
