Meth has nothing to do with most of your points. It's not the same as Marijuana. Meth related arrests are not causing overcrowding in jails. On philosophical grounds, I still believe that if you want to fuck up yourself in meth, it is YOUR problem (after all, it's YOUR body.) As I've said before, if you can point to me a person that wont affect anyone else through meth use, I'd be ok with them doing meth. This however, it not possible because of the potency and addictive properties of the drug. There are very few (if any) jobs that a true meth addict can do competently. They suffer from paranoia, blurred vision, insomnia, etc. It's not just your problem, it's the problem of everyone that depends on you. You (we) have to understand that almost every single society that grew on this planet used drugs somehow -- The prohibitionist approach to stop (some) drug use would look childish and hilarious - if it were not disastrous. As I said before, I never claimed that current methods were effective. All I have claimed is that meth should be illegal. And of course, we should always be researching new ways in which we can enforce our laws more effectively.
