It's not the government's job to protect me from myself. If I want to potentially kill myself by hang-gliding or by eating Big Macs until I get diabetes or by killing my brain cells, that's my business. But even if there was an argument to be made for government having some role in drugs, was it worth the cost? The Fourth Amendment has been gutted, police have been militarized and treat everyone as criminals, countless lives have been ruined by both police and criminals over control, trillions have been spent on this prohibition, governments have been plunged into civil war and revolt and coup d-tats, and thanks the Push Down-Pop Up cycle, we now have cartels in Mexico fighting for control of the country and there is no end in sight.
How was keeping pot out of my hands worth any of that?
