Yes, children can sometimes be an inconvenience, but sort of a necessary part of our existence. Tourism brings in money. Dogs are limited in where they may go.
Getting high is literally just to get a buzz. So pretty self indulgent.
Agree the laws on the books should help protect but unfortunately they are not consistently enforced.
Cannabis and other drugs can impair from a single dose. One quick edible before going to your shift. Whereas it’s difficult to slug a 6 pack or chug a bunch of liquor. So people pop an edible before going to work and don’t think anyone can tell they’re high, but next thing you know there’s a line wrapped around the block because they’re doing everything at the speed of molasses. There’s just no fear anymore and limited social taboo.
I tend to lean more libertarian but I just don’t think we’re on a good trajectory with this one.
I was a proponent for cannabis legalization several years ago.. but seeing it in action, not so sure anymore. And I don’t even live in a state where it’s legal. But seems like half the work force is stoned now. Doesn’t bother me if you want to get high at home. But shouldn’t be high in public if it’s going to inconvenience others or put others at risk.
Economic ideologies undergo natural selection too. If one population is operating under principles that lead to more efficiency and thus greater production then it will dominate groups operating under less productive ideologies (e.g. the Cold War).
