> I don't believe one second that any of the European elected official under 50 never smoked pot. To be honest, just the very first statistics I could find on the topic, I didn't put any effort in looking it up at all: https://www.emcdda.europa.eu/system/files/publications/753/emcdda-daily-cannabis-use-2012_400271.pdf https://www.emcdda.europa.eu/system/files/publications/753/e... says the following > In the 2012 EMCDDA Annual report, it is conservatively estimated that cannabis has been used at least once (lifetime prevalence) by around 80.5 million Europeans: almost one in four of all 15- to 64-year-olds. This matches my personal experience (currently mid 30s in Germany) a lot closer, unless politicans are vastly more likely to smoke pot (or pot smokers vastly more likely to go into politics) I have a hard time imagining your estimate is even close to true.
