Someone actually suggested that the best way to eliminate an otherwise unpopular law is to strictly enforce it.

I think that was General Grant.

BTW, after marijuana was legalized in Washington state, I got a call from my daughter there. She said that the day after it was legalized her company did random drug testing and fired a LOT of people they had been trying to get rid of. They all tested positive for marijuana which, as you point out, is a violation of federal law and a valid reason for termination.

My observation is that some people can handle it without problems, and some people can't. Of course the law has to apply to everyone equally, and so that makes it hard on the people for whom it isn't a problem.

And for me, that’s the problem. I’m an adult. They need to leave me alone until I act badly enough that they need to remove me. I’m the same way on gambling. I used to be against it. I’m now for it. Adults in a free country understand that the freedom to succeed goes hand in hand with the freedom to fail.
