Your bluff on the ninth was called roscoe, and you don't have a pair big enough to refute.
The ninth is in plain english. ALL rights are retained by the people, enumerated or not.
Thus, I have an inalienable right to start a business making/selling drugs to users, as long as all ~constitutional~ business regulations are followed.
Outright prohibitions on such activities are unconstitutional.

"The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people."
Find a single authority or court decision that holds that illicit drug use is an unemumerated right under the Ninth Amendment.
Just one.
