Drugs are not "bad". People can be bad, overusing any particular substance can be unhealthy, true, but we need to keep in mind that there is nothing inherently evil about euphoria. In fact, there is a lot of good reasoning behind the idea that euphoria is in fact a necessary part of a healthy life, and not everyone has within their cerebral soups the right mixtures of neurotransmitters in order to experience the appropriate amount of euphoria in their lives without medicating.
Declaring a war on drugs, even having a Schedule I classification is irresponsible. Those drugs should be available to those who they may benefit, and they should be regulated to prevent misuse, true, but the system as it is now is nothing more than a sham that the gangsters (and maybe even terrorists) reap the benefits from. You'd think that the prohibition years would have taught us something.
