it is never so obvious as in a conversation about the legalization of drugs that the intellectual diseases of ideological blindness and rationalized vanity afflict “libertarians” as much as marxist-leninists, maoists, anarchists, or islamists. anyone can see with his own the degredation of other aspects of the culture and social norms that no one would want regulated by government either – and yet, how are we to correct rampant sexualization, sneering corrosive bitchery, cultural levelling, and sheer stupidity? clearly the 1st amendment prevents meaningful regulation. anyone who thinks legalizing drugs will end the black market lacks imagination: colombian farmers will always be able to work or be coerced to work for little enough money that pushers can reduce the price below what commercially produced cocaine according FDA-regulated standards will require. you guys are not nearly as economically, philosophically, or morally savvy as you think you are, probably because you’re so hard up to appear like apostles of liberty that you forget wisdom consists in moderation of all things, not the lopsided investment in FREEEEEDOM!!!!!!! that you think it does. go back to school, morons. you have plenty of freedom, and you are not at risk.
