the current unconstitutional Controlled Substances act.

If you consider it to be unconstitutional. I do not.

But it is - it is based on a "substantial effect" test for interstate commerce authority that is found nowhere in the language of the Constitution and that Justice Clarence Thomas has condemned as a "rootless and malleable standard." (The same test that has authorized the federal big-welfare state, by the by.)

I disagree.

While offering no reason for anyone else to share your disagreement. That and a dollar will get you a cup of coffee (a dependency-forming chemical stimulant).

Darn good thing, then, that I don’t drink, smoke, take illegal drugs or caffeine.
