I agree. Bur nobody is forcing them to take the drugs. In that sense processed food companies are also to blame for many diseases but you will somehow advocate for them.

Many millions of diseases are attributed to chemically fortified foods. If every last fast food joint closed its doors people get healthier. But of course you would never advocate for that.

I cannot vote for anniversary wealthy person regardless of party. Goes against my christianity.

Sugary soft drinks are awful as well. Don't hear anyone advocating for them to be illegal. Oh and then there is alcohol. It's a drug, it is abused, and yet people who want drugs to be illegal are advocates for alcohol to remain legal because it causes no problems correct?

I can easily separate the two. God, speaking through Paul, grants permission for certain things.

Alcohol is the most abused drug by far.

Wasting your vote.

Wasting your vote.

There is no alternative.

Thinking you meant 'ruin'?

There is something to that....without a market, there would be no cartels.

But..most of our problems? Nope...add to them no doubt...but many things are not about drugs users and abusers.

Those problems started with a huge increase of drugs used in the mid to late 1960's. Many from that era became parents and grandparents as the illegal drug industry seemed to mature. It is difficult for rich nations to remain so in human history.

Trump Is a Traitor to That Class

 

[Richard-H]

Only one in five Americans regularly use illegal drugs, yet they are almost solely responsible for most of our problems, including the massive invasion at the southern border. Food for thought.

If that's food for thought my brain is gonna start puking!

You have delivered a fine example of multiple non sequiturs in a single post.

Congrad's you are now a certified IDIOT!

He's too inept to run a kegger in a brewery.

You didn't give it much thought. Tsk, tsk, tsk.

70,000 people die each from illegally obtained opioids. That figure alone represents 70,000 drug crimes involving more than one person for each event (someone had to provide those illegal drugs). 46 percent of all incarcerations are for drug offenses. Add the ones that got away or died and it's well over 50 percent, which makes my case. Then add crimes committed in obtaining drugs and the figure goes even higher.

This without even considering the effect on the social order, government, education, commerce and the economy, the military, the environment, etc.

Lots of food for thought there.

Populists Pulverizing the Pompous

He gets the hereditary ruling class drunk on tax cuts, while at the same time he awakens the sleeping giant MAGA and fills it with a terrible resolve.

True. There's a MAGA vote behind every blade of grass.

Get High and Get Laid Low

We can do better than that if we replace the druggy-loving softies with hardliners who will poison the drug supply.

Most people who drink alcohol don't do it for the sole purpose of getting stoned. That said it is widely abused.
