That problem needs to be addressed. Even though necessary medications are being abused, this does not justify unnecessary drugs being abused.
“That problem needs to be addressed. Even though necessary medications are being abused, this does not justify unnecessary drugs being abused.”
I agree it is a problem, but having the government decide what is “necessary” in every problem leads to things like a grandma getting arrested because she traveled out of town and forgot some over the counter medicine that is controlled and she bought one already that month, so when she bought a second she was suddenly a criminal...
I want to use the least amount of government possible to solve a problem and even then only when there is no other good alternative.
