I wrote earlier where my numbers come from.

Too many posts on this thread to read every one.

.direct contact with the counselors who have made a career of working with addicts and the affects of the problems.

I imagine it would vary by drug.

As a Nation, I think there will be severe rammifications if these hard substances become legal.

In a sense I agree but there are also severe ramifications from them being illegal, and other negative results that will be there whether or not they are legal.

I think both booze and marijuana should be HEAVILY taxed

You realize, of course, that you have to legalize it to tax it?

Like taxes have solved all those other social problems.

I think both booze and marijuana should be HEAVILY taxed, to help pay for all the problems that occur with overuse.
