Why? Because it is YOUR INDIVIDUAL RIGHT to do whatever you want to do if it doesn't infringe on anyone's right. If you want to smoke some weed in your home with some friends, what right do I have to tell you you can't do that?
I don't. Your rights stop where mine starts.

Really? Then why is addiction rates in Netherlands lower than in the United States? Making something legal won't cause everyone to suddenly try it and become addicted.

I have no opinion on a the legality of drugs in a society where society funds health care. I don't want to live in such a society. It really does complicate things. Because, now I can say, we should outlaw [this] and [that] because I'm paying for YOUR health care. It gives others justification to make decisions over other people's individual rights.
No thanks.
