It should be legal no matter how good or bad it is for you.
OK, let's say dope fucks you up. Gives you cancer. Makes you blind. Makes you look like Michael Jackson. Whatever.
So what? Cigarettes fuck you up too. They're not only legal, the government subsidizes tobacco farmers so they'll stay in business.
If someone wants to screw up their life with drugs, that's not any of the government's business. A free country also means we have the freedom to screw up.
The government has spent way too much time and resources fighting drugs that could have been directed toward more worthy causes like, i dunno, rebuilding roads and feeding the homeless?
