"Right on bro. Tobacco and then alcohol - both legal - cause more loss in the U.S. than all the illegal drugs combined."


Is this an argument for or against legalized susbstances like drugs, alcohol, and tabocco?

Are alcohol and tobacco bigger killers because they are more readily available, cheaper, and widely used?

So by adding other sustances to that list, we are somehow better off?

I do see both sides of the argument, and dont' have an extreme position on eithe side, but I really wonder about the point you both were making...
