Your victims really aren't victims in the sense the original examples had victims. I hope you can see the difference between a human victim and some vague concept. Or between another person and yourself, for that matter. The rest of your argument is that "drugs" - which you lump together as one, despite having just read an essay about that very thing - decrease incentive to work. You say this as if your hasty logic is a good substitute for fact. There are drugs that do short-term or long-term harm to one's self, drugs that decrease motivation to work, and drugs that do nothing of the sort. Without data to back your position up on any drug, though, we're relying solely on our subjective perceptions. It sounds like you've already formed an opinion, but I'd urge you to do so on the foundation of fact going forward.
