I was reading a book on social life of the upper-middle class and new rich of the American 1920s and realized so many things we now do proudly were considered socially taboo back then. This was especially the case for clothing, makeup, women in certain public spaces, etc. What do you think will be different in the 2120s? Or maybe even the next 50 years?
Some drugs are fine, others not so much. And some people can form bad habits and dependencies on good drugs. Its a tricky situation all around. But yes, thats the best approach imho
I think the US should have a whole “re-scheduling” of drugs, because some of the things on the schedule 1 (worst drugs) are legal in some states (Marijuana), and as safe as alcohol if made properly and taken with care (ecstasy, LSD, Magic Mushrooms). Some even have medical uses (LSD, Marijuana, Magic Mushrooms) that can’t be accessed by some people because of being “schedule I”. Also, this is the definition of Schedule 1: “no currently accepted medical use and a high potential for abuse.” Doesn’t that describe alcohol? I’m not saying that alcohol should be outlawed, but I would say if this describes Marijuana, then it also describes alcohol.
