I think it's time to the US to dust off the layer of dust of the Constitution and RE-READ!!!!!!
The 'government' was established to do ONLY what the States could not do for themselves. To PROVIDE for the common wealth of the PEOPLE who make up the Country!!
If, especially in current times, a grown, mature adult decides to engage in recreational drug use in the privacy of his own home; who has the right to say that is wrong, so long as he does not then engage in activities that would otherwise endanger individuals who have chosen to abstaine from the use of drugs, IE don't Turn on, tune in, drop out then go drive to the movies.
If what I do in the privacy of my own home, or acceptable places of use, and I can still go to work (if I'm lucky enough to have a job and home) and be a productive member of society, then who has the right to take that away? no one should.
Alot of the talk against drugs is that 'we' use them to escape from stressful environments. Well my answer to that is simply this, remove the need to escape from 'reality', because currently taking a 'clear' look around the world and actually paying attention to ALL that's going on is more depressing than the 'establishments' description of the drug world.
"Normal" people go on killing spree's, those that seem otherwise normal people who perform in a socially acceptable model go home and beat their wives, kill them, gloat to their friends. Why not outlaw human contact, or domestic unions all together, can't beat your wife if you can't have one to beat right!
I could talk about the flaws in the system until 'judgement' day, which is gonna go down all T3 style! lol j/k
