I think the stupid " war on drugs " should stay away from seniors who benefit on the whole from the scientific conquest of pain.

 Most of the 60s anti-establishment generation want marijuana, for example., legalized not " regulated ". I have a 75 year old woman friend with bone cancer. Apart from pain control, who would object to her just feeling " high " now and then ?

Nobody is " regulating " alcohol consumption. Must capitalist society be endlessly oppressive and repressive for ordinary people ? And is not a little ridiculous worrying about 80 year olds with a " habit " ?

It is amazing that insane capitalist society does not produce more drunks and dope addicts.
