Millions of people use LSD every year today, in addition to a dozen other hallucinogens. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/americans-increase-lsd-use-and-a-bleak-outlook-for-the-world-may-be-to-blame1/ https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/americans-increas... "In the late 1970s... 10 percent of high school seniors reported ever using LSD, compared with 6 percent today." Ten percent isn't very much. Americans in the 60's and 70's were far more likely to support endless jail time for drug users than to be one themself.

> Ten percent isn't very much. It took less than that to bring Pokémon-frenzy into my school, and it only takes 1-3% of a population to effect revolution. I don't know, bud.
