12. Marijuana legalization was a gateway legalization for me |
|
It was only very recently I realized that despite our best efforts and intentions, if you handed me $20 and gave me 20 minutes I could score virtually any drug you could name.
We've spent a trillion dollars on this drug war and ruined millions of lives, even throwing entire nations into bloody revolutions and tyrrany. And we've spent eight decades doing the exact same thing and expecting different reults. In a fact of supreme irony, illegal drugs cost less and are more readily available than ever before.
We've long since passed "stupid" and entered "crazy" territory. Its time we try something different -- full and total legalization and regulation. Sell crystal meth and smack and the rest at government run stores.
