o we'd come through with millions of more addicts crying out for help, and the liberals answering them. What we would have with legalized drugs would be a liberals wet dream.

Maybe, but it couldn't cost more than the current war on drugs. I'm absolutely against our goverment confiscating money from hardworking people and giving it to screwups, but I'd much rather have it be used to help people rather that the current system which harms us all.

I really wish one state would do legalization and that the feds would let them. That state might start out libertarian, but in a few years, it will be more socialist than Mass.

I'd like to see many states try variations on this. marijuana only in some places, prescription maintenance programs for junkies in others, simply not arresting users in some, maybe total legalization with crack on store shelves in a state far from mine ;>

Addicts need gov programs.


Or church programs. a lot of addicts seem to have an emptiness in their lives and fill it with christianity when they quit drugs. It seems to help them more than government programs.

So you would be fine with a socialist without the WOD, than a Republic with one? I oppose the WOD as well, but that is a bit extreme. I'll take home scans, and no knock drug raids over complete socialism ANYDAY
