Hypothetical. Some drugs are legalised tomorrow and their taxation, sale and distribution is taken over by the government. For ease of debate lets say just cannabis and MDMA are suddenly reclassified. So who should be allowed to used these drugs recreationally?
Should it be open market with Johnny Dealer free to open a shop or online store and start selling it to anyone with a credit card? Should there be an age limit of 18 like with alcohol or, given their effects on developing brains, should be set an age limit of 21 or even 25?
Should we make users have a certified medical examination and give them a licence? Who shouldn't be allowed access then? If you are already on blood pressure medication should you be allowed to use MDMA? What about if you are on SSRI's or suffer from depression? What about schizophrenics? If you have a history of addiction such as alcoholism, should you be allowed to use? Should they be concerned about a history of family members with such conditions? What about having a gambling addiction?
How would you change current drug laws and what consequences are you willing to accept?
