The quantity of painkillers he is getting from his family practice doc would kill a horse. His only pain today is the pain of being hopelessly addicted.

Much bigger problem than street drug addiction, all nice and legal.


So isn't that what the legalization proponents are wanting? Why call painkiller addiction a problem at all? Sounds like the ideal situation based on the complaints about our drug policy.

It doesn't make sense to complain about (legal) painkiller addiction when our policy on painkillers seems to be what people are calling for for other drugs.

People hold up Portugal and don't seem to know what actually goes on there. They denounce prohibition despite personal use and home manufacture was allowed ... which decriminalization advocates call for in regard to marijuana.

Things like this make me wonder if people know what they want.
