But, I might be pursuaded to lift a ban, not only on Mjane, but on all drugs, IF and only IF, people that use their freedom to use and abuse whatever drug, substance, physical object they choose to put into their bodies, that they are allowed to suffer the consequences without the federal/state governments using the tax monies to support their rehab, give them food stamps, welfare, assisted housing, or any assistance at all. If someone chooses to do drugs and can still function to support themselves and family, more power to him. To those that try and become hooked and let it ruin their lives, well, thats life, you win a Darwin award.

Personally i would hope that revenue from drug legalization would at least go in part to educating people of the "REAL" hazards of drugs use. In exactly the same way that a portion of revenue paid for cigarettes is used to educate people on the consequences of abuse.
That's how you solve drug abuse problems in a society. proven structure showing the success in both alcohol and cigarette industries.
