I’ve tried to have rational debates on this topic in FR in the past. For every thoughtful, reasoned comment, there were 10 drug induced coma rants and rambles. The same pattern occurs on the topic of pit bulls. I now avoid those topics unless I want to remind myself why drugs and prosperity don’t mix.
Amazingly, I am having the best revenue year of all time, do not use drugs, and advocate the government stay the heck out of the drug issue.
What were you referring to on these topics and prosperity?
I’m curious... we had NO drug laws in the 19th and early 20th centuries. Why didn’t we, as a nation, go belly up then? Seems to me we had some of the greatest expansion in our history... yet drugs were widely available (and used, from all accounts). So could you sort of clarify your post, please? Thanks in advance.
Thanks for the post...and the sound advice.
I took this subject on once before and barely escaped with my life.
