Wont a Socialist Utopia make everyone so euphoric that all drugs will be abandoned?
If the author was making a serious effort to solve the problem, this wouldn’t be the last paragraph of the article:
Perhaps it is time to rethink the problem. “Rethink” may be inaccurate as it is difficult to associate thought with those who brought us to this sorry pass.
I suspect that a big reason that alcohol has never been included in the war on drugs is that so many politicians are lushes.
Warring on drugs mistakes the footprint for the shoe.
Coach is wrong. Again.
Part of the answer is a border fence and deporting illegal aliens. It is the illegal aliens from Mexico who not only smuggle in drugs but actively recruit new addicts. The Xalisco Boy who sell black tar heroin, for example, target only whites, especially youngsters. All are illegal aliens, briefly in the US before being replaced with another grew.
As long as there is money to be made thier will be drugs
Well let’s start with:
I discount everything written about drugs by an author, that incudes the (OXY) in a discussion about Class 1 Narcotics.
He is either deceitful, or woefully misinformed.
In the very next sentence he contends that the government has made all these drugs illegal. Horse apples!
The OXY he refers to is Oxycodone, or the main ingredient in OxyContin, Percoset, and many other “Prescription” medications.
It is used by me, and many other chronic pain, and cancer patients to relieve what is otherwise debilitating pain.
Without this medication, I am unable to lift myself out of bed, bathe myself, or even make it to the bathroom without assistance.
This medication has given me a quality of life that most take for granted, and for him to include it in this manner is a slap in the face to all of us who this medication has helped.
How in the hell is it our fault that a bunch of numbskulls who have obtained the med ILLEGALLY (sound like the gun argument?) have misused it?
After that first statement, it’s hard to take anything else he says seriously.
