Yeah, back then we at least had the decency to pass constitutional amendments to impose and repeal nationwide prohibition.
To suggest that complete repeal of the controlled substances act is not without repercussions is not going to cut it.
So do you think the CSA is justified by the Commerce Clause? Or, do you think states should have that authority under the Tenth Amendment?
I’m not presuming to have any answer.
It is obvious that the present plan is not working and in the alternative libertarian plan doesn’t sound very appealing either.
I say that because while I agree that one should have the liberty to make a mess of one’s life...the problem is the collateral damage of the lives others.
I don’t know how to reconcile the collateral damage to liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
Without some clear lines about self sovereignty and the rights of others, there really isn’t a good solution.
