Also people should be able to ingest whatever they want..whether its morphine from poppys or oxys from a drug company--but it should be done knowledgeably, which is obviously not always the case when looking at addiction and APAP overdoses..
Thank you doctor.

Those people that "should be able to ingest whatever they want" even when the drug isn't for them should deal with the consequences and my wish for those "recreational" drugs and the people that DON'T NEED THEM (because those that do need them don't get a damn a high) should be extreme and brutal. Just my opinion. Pill poppers and pill dealers are the worst.
The reason I explained street drugs vs. prescription was to prove my point that regardless of whether its a pill or powder its the same thing. You're talking about pills as if they're significantly different from street drugs--If you are completely against people using rec. drugs thats one thing but saying "use of recreational (pills) are the worst" is ******ed. And the consequences can be easily avoided by some research, a quick google search can keep me from ever overdosing or getting addicted.

that research is no small amount though
That's why the drugs cost so much. With a 5 year window until the patent expires its understandable to want to make a profit.

Something about this reminds me about that scene on Goodfellas when Henry is in the shower and hears the news report about the heist
