Because, since Oliver Wendell Holmes, we no longer have Justice—Rule of Law.
We have arbitrary (unjust) laws that are irrational.
We also have a severely corrupt “Justice” department. In an ideal society—we would have Justice which would give help to addicts—through programs which free them from addictions—BUT THE BETTER SOLUTION—is EDUCATION by moral parents doing their DUTY so that the addictions will never happen. Emotionally healthy parents raise emotionally healthy children who are independent and moral and fulfill all their duties.
We have allowed media and schools to promote lies and brainwash children and remove Virtue from curricula. That happened with Dewey. You need no “drug laws” with moral people—None. That is why the Founders stated that Virtue was NEEDED for a free Republic-—that idea was stated as far back as the Ancient Greeks. Marxists know to destroy civil society—you destroy Virtue—then society collapses. That is the plan stated by Cultural Marxists to bring down the US. Homosexual, Feminists, Keynesians, are all communist fronts to destroy our institutions to corrupt the people and destroy morality. When you destroy the natural family—you destroy the emotional development of the children which creates all sorts of dysfunctional behaviors and addictions.
Instill Virtue and you have no drug problem-—you get a true utopia, something that is non-existent without Virtue.
We have usurped parental authority and destroyed marriage so that parents neglect the education of their own offspring and we allow Marxist public schools to destroy Virtue (BK Eakman).
We have such an unconstitutional government involved in “education” of our children (Centralized Education creates slaves of the State (JS Mill) that there can only be a promotion of evil and unjust law—which we have now which is destroying our civil liberties and the Constitution.
You want no drug laws-—well, fine—you won’t need them, if we had “Just Law” like at our Founding== which only promoted Virtue in all our Institutions-—which gets government OUT of the welfare system (so druggies aren’t enabled to do drugs)—the school system—the parenting system—brainwashing our children, etc.
You can’t have a Socialist system like we have now promoting drug use to our children-—which is what legalization does. It is why alcohol use is so prevalent in our youth. That will just quickly collapse the society (not that that isn’t going to happen anyway if we don’t ditch the socialism).
We have allowed media to glorify all sorts of immoral behavior and normalize it. There has to be Truth in media-—ha ha —that right there is the Marxist means of destruction......our press has been controlled for a century by the Marxist/Soros type—who form our “perceptions” that drug use is cool and groovy and “fun” when it destroys people and all their important relationships and makes people slaves. (Just the type of people Marxists want Americans to be).
Nonsense. It's legal to insult one's spouse - does that mean it's "promoted"?
As I am fond of saying, I am perfectly fine with legalizing the drugs, so long as we’re allowed to ban their use right in public places, hold people liable to prosecution for drug use and poor job performance by their employers, keep the dealers accountable as slander and libel about their products, and also, finally, discipline addicts for neglecting their families and work.
