The war on drugs was started because the punks in the sixties popularized drug usage. I think of all the lives ended and/or wasted because these punks wanted to rebel against society. Today even elementary school kids are using the stuff. There were over nine hundred in my high school graduating class and I cannot remember anyone who even knew what drugs were. Those punks completely changed our culture and not for the better either. They gave us drugs, casual sex, shacking up instead of marriage, disrespect for our founders and our country.
And the parents of those punks were the “greatest generation”. Apparently they couldn’t or didn’t instill the “traditional American” values of God,honest work,monogamous sex,etc.
