This question has been answered my me in numerous other posts over the years.

Have any reasons that I haven't already shown to be invalid in other threads?

I must, since I'm still against the legalization of drugs.

BTW, it's not necessary to invalidate my reason -- we agree, for example, that there is a financial burden placed on us by recreational drug users.

But just because you point out that a similar burden exists for alcohol and overeating doesn't make me slap my forehead and proclaim that it's not fair that drugs aren't similarly burdening me.

Or did you think that your arguments were so clever and compelling that I'd stupidly vote to legalize drugs despite the fact that it would cost me more money?

Is this an example of you invalidating one of my objections? No wonder I'm still against drugs.
