At least at the federal level, yes we should legalize all drugs. As I challenged another poster, please point me to the article, section, clause or ammendment in the Constitution that grants the Federal government the power to control what I can or cannot ingest into my own body. State level, maybe that’s a different story depending on the state. Some state constitutions may well grant the state governemnt such authority, but I am still opposed to granting any government the authority to regulate my own body.

Consider, if the state can make ingesting a marijuana brownie illegal, what prevents that state from making the ingestion of a non-marijuana laced brownie illegal? We always complain about and make fun of Bloomberg’s large soda ban in NYC. In principle, what’s the difference?
