Many people that I admire hold views on things like drugs that I find incomprehensible.

The founding fathers would have laughed at the notion of outlawing medicinal substances..

We still live in the age of prohibition... it is like a warped religion. I don't think it is the proper role of government to protect us from ourselves... no alcohol, no fat food, no recreational drugs, no motorcycle riding without a helmet...etc etc ad infinitum.

This headlong rush to make all human frailties a crime is so misguided... now car accidents are routinely looked at as crimes requiring jail time...this is bizarre!
The current story about 2 rich young guys driving around in a Ferrari at 80mph is a case in point... a wreck occurs and now the survivor is probably going to jail :-(

I don't like living in a world where 2 young rich guys are at risk of a long jail term for driving a bit fast in a Ferrari...

Land of the free indeed :-/

Rush is in my prayers... I hope that he is alright... this revelation about his problems may have saved his life...
