Which drugs have you used recreationally?

People should have the freedom to live their own lives. We should concentrate on helping with the negatives in society instead of removing free will. Making something illegal just means you give someone the power to ruin your life for disagreeing with them.

That's the definition of vulgar...

I used to in favor of legalizing all drugs. Then I saw some friends get addicted to meth and that changed my mind.

I would be in favor of legalizing more drugs. But I think some drugs are just too addictive for too many people.

If we lived in a more wonkish society, we could custom design drugs that could potentially do less harm.

I remember reading years ago in a science magazine that an alternative to alcohol could probably be designed that did less liver damage and maybe even had less of a hangover effect. But would have a similar mental effect.

But instead of being grandfathered in as natural beverage, you would have to get it approved as a pharmaceutical.

Good luck getting anybody to fund the research/trials for that one.

And then it would probably only be available by prescription for some eye watering cost per month...
