I've been following this thread a bit and it seems to me the discussion has
been swayed back and forth by "scientific studies". Do you really believe
that any present day democratic government has the citizens needs and
desires in mind? These "studies" (not unlike statistics) can be used and
twisted by people on either side of the fence. I believe the better question
to be . . . how much more government do you want in your life and does what
government you do have serve everyone equally? And possibly even a better
question would be. . . do you believe that when something is made "illegal"
by a government, that the problem just goes away? It takes so much of your
hard earned tax dollars to "regulate" the use of "illegal substances and to
what avail? But it does seem to validate in some odd and unfounded way the
justification citizens find for employing such sloth.
