If the drugs weren’t being used by the primary users there would be no murderous cartels and no national war on drugs. So who is using circular reasoning and not looking at the triple 800 lb gorillas in the room?

Personal accountability, personal integrity, and personal morality are all coupled with the ability to have a sense of the effects of one’s personal behavior and and how it effects our own small corner of the world as well as the cumulative effects of millions who follow a similar behavioural path as one’s own. If I decide to do drugs and purchase them from a dealer whose supply chain includes a legacy of death and destruction then I become guilty of that same blood guilt, and God will not hold me guiltless !!!

Another words, my own(hypothetically speaking) “harmless to others” drug habit has actually contributed to the death and misery of the populace in those areas where the cartels operate as well as diminished my productive capacity and has made me a source of sadness to the loved ones in my own corner of time and space. I will have become a wasted soul with a deadness eminating from my eyes!(I am an RN and have seen many young people WITH DEADNESS EMINATING FROM THEIR EYES wasted away with Hep c, AIDS, kidney failure, before the the age of 25. All telling me the same thing...MJ AND ETOH WERE THEIR GATEWAY DRUGS!)

Long term established Companies don’t want illicit drug users because they’ve had the time and experience to see how such folk hurt the bottom line and in some cases can put others at risk. Pot’s effects are insidious in that the damage occurs over time, but the damage to the flight or fight activation centers, and the areas that govern motivation and personal judgment can be considerable and is, according to our state of science, irreversible.

Ilicit drug users have blood on their hands in terms of the killings that go on in the wars to control the drug trade.

As do supporters of the War On Drugs, which provides motivation for the wars by hyperinflating drug profits.

If the drugs weren’t being used by the primary users there would be no murderous cartels

And if the drug profits weren't hyperinflated by the War On Drugs there would be no murderous cartels - just as there are no murderous cartels dealing in the legal mind-altering drug alcohol (although there were when that drug was illegal).

Long term established Companies don’t want illicit drug users because they’ve had the time and experience to see how such folk hurt the bottom line and in some cases can put others at risk.

I've never been drug tested by any of the established, successful companies I've worked for.
