    There are many people that see the perscribed stimulants we use to medicate, as no different then the ones which are often abused to get high.

    I mean, there is little difference between the two. The main difference is the usage. One is a medicinal use, the other is a recreational use (or abuse). People should learn to make that distinction. Cocaine is used as a local numbing agent in eye surgery. Morphine (heroine) is used as a painkiller. We should not give in to the morons who for whatever reason say our medicinal use is invalid or wrong.

      You are correct. And yet, many of these morons hold positions of power over our lives. Reality often requires discretion.
