The WOD is nothing but a farce and the drugs have won. The DEATH penalty will not fix the problem.

So, evidently your answer is for the government to not even try to stop meth labs' production? Oh, wait, I'm sure it's even better than that. Lemme guess...you want the government to produce their own meth/crank/ice to put the mom-and-pop operations "out of business". Do I have this about right?

The govt. buildings are also being used to make the stuff by workers.

Meth problem has become like rats in NYC, you keep your home clean and clear of debris so you don't get invaded.

I went through this on another thread with some other meth apologists. You're right, that's exactly what they want. This is what I learned:

They want the government to oversee the distribution of meth and they want the proceeds of this trade (via taxation) to fund social programs and health care.

So, on the one hand, they want you to believe that legalization will lower the price so that addicts won't have to steal to support their habit, but they also want the government to tax the stuff which will keep the price high.

They also want you to believe, once meth is legalized, that the users will be a threat only to themselves. They don't want you to think about the long term effects of meth on those who don't manage to kill themselves, effects that last long after the actual use of the drug ceases.

They want you to believe that government control will make meth "safer". Some of them actually believe that the problem will solve itself because the users will kill themselves off more quickly, but they want you to believe that the "safer" government-approved meth will make it harder for users to OD.

This safer product they want is actually pharmacueutical-grade meth, which has been available for years as a prescription drug, but now they want to get it over the counter.

And, sooner or later, they will make you remember what a monumental failure Prohibition was.

Done and done: All you have to do is go to the doc and tell him you can't pay attention to yo work, and you will be on HMO-paid, or government paid, speed in a jiffy.
