Stop dealing and using drugs, dopers. Go to work.
What about those of us capable of going to work while still doing drugs in our off time? I know lots of people that get up & go to work every day while still smoking weed or drinking at night. In the 90s & early 2000s, there were countless heroin addicts in San Francisco that had great jobs in the tech sector. Despite what you want to think about drug users, there are many that can hold down a job. Some of the highest paid people I have known have smoked weed & many successful people are alcoholics.
A lot of people in jail for drugs would still be contributing members of society if they were not locked up. Drugs & the desire to be intoxicated are as old as civilization. Trying to fight it is a losing endeavor. Might as well outlaw sex while we're at it. I have known several people whose lives were worsened more by the legalities of drugs than the actual drugs themselves. If you can't hold down a job while still getting inebriated, then that is your problem. Don't take away the freedom of others just because you don't like it.
