Default There should be no line

Either legalize all drugs or make all drugs illegal. I say legalize all drugs, let us pick and choose if we want to take them or not. People are held accountable for everything else in their lives, why not this? I mean, I'm not saying that employers should still hire people on drugs. That is where the line should go if there has to be a line. Employers should have the right to test for drugs and should have the right to say which ones they don't want people taking. I know that you can't drink on the job so there is a good example of a drug that is perfectly legal, but is not allowed at work. Why not use that same logic with pot. I say, if someone wants to smoke up, they can smoke up...sober up by work on monday and go in as though nothing happened, just like when you drink. ONe benefit is that pot yields little to no hangovers. The whole system needs revamping. But there are too many goody goodies out there that won't allow such a thing because they think if its kept illegal, their innocent little kids won't be able to get into it. Well I have news for these people, and that is that I have seen kids that can get almost anything you want, where, I don't know, ask them....kids have the connections...If it were legalized government would be able to control it more easily and keep it out of kids hands. I don't know...maybe I'm wrong...I'm sure someone will say so....let's hear it...
