I have mixed feelings on the drug issues. In a perfect world, adults would understand the concept of
moderation. I don't, however, think that
all adults could handle taking drugs responsibly if they were legalized.
As for marijuana... I think it's great that it helps chemotherapy patients (and who knows who else it might help) and am all for medical use.
But remember, doctors used to use morphine to ease pain as well. And what did they find out about that?
I do think that the biggest reason that drugs aren't legal is because the government makes more money off of them now than if they were controlled legally.
I also don't think it's a really great idea to teach children that drugs are just fine. So I understand why many people want them to remain illegal. (Then again, if you're gonna use it, you use it, and if you're not, you don't).
Then you get into cigarettes/tobacco and alcohol...
I don't think there should be an age limit on either, really... but that's another topic.
