Getting " high " by any means should be none of BIG BROTHER'S business !

Way back in the " Tumultuous 60s " - despite being quite puritanical myself in the matter of self-intoxication, and fake drug " euphoria " - I disagreed with the fatuous WAR ON DRUGS . An unfortunate consequence of this misguided WAR is that even sick elderly people now are being cheated of effective pain medicine. How many people over 70 are in danger of becoming drug- addict threats to society ? You can also kill yourself with booze and cigarettes. Getting " high " by any means should be none of Big Brother's business. We can begin by abolishing FOR PROFIT health care in the United States. Then health care will at least begin to become a BASIC HUMAN RIGHT. This is still not the case in capitalist America. So many sad stories of NEGLECT go unreported .
