“’So.... let anyone access whatever they want, regardless of situation?’
It would be like living in a free country.”
Beautiful answer. LOL. Part of the experience of freedom is to only answer to yourself for your choices, where they don’t directly hurt another anyway.
It does have to do with what kind of society we want. The choice isn’t about living with even more drug addicts, because I believe those who do drugs will do them regardless, and some are even attracted to the forbidden.
The choice is about freedom and personal responsibility, and neither of those things a government can regulate.
“It would be like living in a free country.”
It would be like living in a free country if the taxpayers weren’t forced to pick up the tab for “education,” “treatment,” “rehabilitation,” “welfare,” etc.
If you can do the drugs, you can fulfill your responsibilities.
Also, let employers drug test employees and terminate failures.
Try to rob me to support your habits at your mortal peril.
