> What about the fact that drugs are incompatible with the lifestyle we want our society to have? Isn't it better instead of legalizing them to find the root cause which is forcing these people to seek escapism from reality in psychoactive substances? Should we be fighting all forms of escapism? Movies, books, comics, computer games? Daydreaming? If not, why are "drugs" different? Does this apply to all psychoactive substances? Tobacco? Alcohol? Chocolate? Nutmeg? > I don't want to live in a society of drug addicts, I want to live among people of sound mind, body and spirit, who conduct themselves honestly and honourable among their peers. Wouldn't we all? I do not think that eradicating drug use will bring about this this utopia, though.
