So preventing or attempting to prevent addicts from becoming addicts is needed worldwide. The minute we say "Well we cant afford to jail these addicts lets make it all legal" that will in fact reverberate thru our youth and they will think "Hey its cool, its legal... lets do it" and we will start having alot more kids die from drugs, alot more kids who would have gotten an education instead become addicts at 14... How is that good for a society at all???

I agree pot should not be considered a drug, but if you need a chemistry set to make the drug then you dont need the drug end of story.
