Having spent an extended time in the academic milieu in Cambridge, MA, another concern of mine is the extended use of stimulants. For personal choice, I don't much care, but in the context of those making the laws, I observed a definite tendency of students and researchers to expect Joe Random American to be able to output work at the same capacity as hopped-up administrators to be. And the end effect is observable: a meth epidemic among the disenfranchised. Is it any wonder a class of vulnerable people is created who have to take drugs to work the crappiest jobs because large equity and gaps in access to capital prevent them from ever owning a home? Curb stimulant use in the Ivy Leagues.
