As many of you already know, the United States is the biggest consumer in the world of illegal drugs. Drug lords everywhere in the world are making literally hundreds and hundreds of millions of dollars off of our fat asses.
I guess beyond that, I really don't have much to say about it. I've always tended to stay away from the issue of drugs because, frankly, I haven't had much of an opinion on the issue. I think of myself as too ignorant about the critical facts about these things to have any kind of opinion.
Recently, I've begun to have some interest in the issue because the career I'm trying to switch to has something to do with it. (No, I'm not going to give up programming to become a drug lord.) I'd like to hear from both/all sides of the argument on the issue of drugs. Should certain drugs be legalized or should all illegal drugs stay illegal? How do we effectively deal with foreign drug imports? How do we effectively, realistically, and humanely deal with Americans who use and deal drugs?
Should all drug users and dealers be exported to Canada?
Disclaimer:
Occasionally, owing to the deficiency of the English language, I have used he/him/his meaning he or she/him or her/his or her in order to avoid awkwardness of style.
He, him, and his are not intended as exclusively masculine pronouns. They may refer to either sex or to both sexes!
