Incorrect as usual; the U.S. Constitution, the "supreme law of the land, states as one of its purposes to "secure the Blessings of Liberty".

I don't don't think the Founding Fathers would consider drug addiction and all the social ills that go along with it a blessing of liberty.

What makes you think the Founding Fathers believed that liberty produced only blessings ... or that one could 'fine-tune' liberty so as to produce only blessings yet remain liberty?
