Why does it not surprise me that libertarians are "fascinated" by the profit potential of legalized international trade in drug addiction?

Fascinating article.

Runnin' all 'round my brain.

Not only did it taste good, it also cured aches and pains, primarily that universal malady, the hangover, or, as the Swedes call it, "The pain in the hair roots."

LOL! That about sums it up. A pain in the hair roots. Been there, done that!

I want my cocaine coke! Imagine cocaine and alcohol in one tidy package. Boy, those really were the good old days!

Three Cokes would provide roughly 30 milligrams of cocaine, which compares with the 20 to 30 milligrams normally "snorted" in a day by a contemporary cocaine user

I comment on this article with some degree of trepidation...i'm older and wiser now (hopefully) but I can very safely say that this statement is just factually incorrect. Back in the day, late 70's and early '80's, a gram (1000 milligrams) would be an evening's entertainment for 2 maybe 3 people (in addition to the weed and booze that was also consumed). Thankfully it was never my cup of tea (like i needed artificial stimulants - oh wait, I was a coffee addict), but I certainly knew my fair share of users whilst in college. 20 or 30 milligrams over the course of the day would have about the same effect as a jumbo coffee at 7-11.

When your day is done and you wanna run; cocaine.
She don't lie, she don't lie, she don't lie; cocaine.

If your thing is gone and you wanna ride on; cocaine.
Don't forget this fact, you can't get it back; cocaine.
She don't lie, she don't lie, she don't lie; cocaine.

She don't lie, she don't lie, she don't lie; cocaine

His inventory included alcohol, opium, morphine, cannabis and two ingredients that were being touted in medical journals at the time: caffeine and cocaine.

Wow, all over the counter sales, eh? It must have been wall-to-wall junkies back in the day.
