The problem is that not everyone that does drugs is a hapless sap, just like not everyone who has a margarita on the beach is an alcoholic.
And how is McDonalds useful? How is it not degrading in health much less character. I find it disturbing when adults go into McDonalds without kids. I mean, what kind of adult eats at McDonalds by choice. Other than their fries, the food is disgusting. If you are going to eat a burger, go to Wendy's, Burger King, Hardy's, Fat Moes, or even better yet, go to a locally own establishment and support your community. I think it says allot about their character. With mass transportation, not everyone needs an automobile. We don't subsistence hunt so we don't need guns. This is America and need has nothing to do with it. If somebody wants to do drugs, they are going to do drugs. We can either spend hundreds of billions of tax dollars every year trying to stop the cartels and the drug dealers as well as incarcerating everyone involved or we legalize it, tax it, and put the drug dealers and cartels out of business. The fact is that you are never going to stop people from doing drugs. And by the way, over twice as many people OD from legal drugs than ilegal drugs in this country. I think everyone should stop trying to save everyone else from themselves and let everyone be responsible for their own behavior. Of course, that would put the preachers, the preists, the rabbis, and the clerics out of business now wouldn't it. Religion would go bankrupt. Not a bad idea if you ask me.
