Then we should ban alcohol, which is much more addictive than marijuana (according to Institute of Medicine figures).
I would agree that addictions in our society require our continued vigilance and resistence because of the damage that it does, but I stand by my original assertion More addiction isn't a good thing.
Re: we should ban alcohol
What I find bafling is Why are you basing your argument, that you want more addictions, on the foundation of removing addictions from society by banning alcohol ?
It would seem to me that your being a selective prohibitionist, don't you ?
