last thought for tonight (since Kotter has made it clear I waste too much time here):
Education should go hand in hand with legalization. Patients/consumers should have the opportunity and availability to knowledge so they can make an informed decision of what they are consuming.
want to use drug X to self-treat Y? here is exactly how much you should safely use, here are the side-effects, here is what to do if you have problems, who to call, and where to go if you need help as well as other recommendations (such as having a sitter for safety).
I think we would all be better off if we treat our fellow man with love and compassion, instead of condemning them as criminals for their choices of self-medication.
happy easter everybody.
