Mind-bending drugs, obesity and disease

Why in this modern age that drugs of all qualities and quantities are flooding the markets? Young folk have access to those mind-bending and body-destroying drugs and some idiots are pushing for the legal use and sale of that hallucinogenic drug marijuana.
We only have one life, so isn't it reasonable and sensible to live a clean and healthy life without narcotics? Our democracy fails in this respect, as retailers are selling drugs of all types – even tobacco and alcoholic beverages are drugs, and sold in huge quantities!
Politics are to blame, as they have the power to import or refuse imports of all bad foods, liquids, drugs and so on, but no, the dollar takes precedence again.
We have passed the point of no return, as our human society is on the decline, with over 50% obesity, more malformed babies born, and some disease immune to antibiotics! Our future is very bleak indeed!

Dear Ernest - with all due respect sir - these mind altering drugs have been around for centuries. People have been doing them of their own free will for that time too. People who do not like them (like yourself) have tried for this amount of time to BAN them - yet they are still available, and people still chose to do them of their own free will. As you say, it is reasonable and also sensible to live a clean healthy life - but that should be YOUR FREE CHOICE, (oh and by the way - democracy is the oppression of the minority by the majority, which is NOT freedom) and so you should respect the choice of others to live the life THEY chose, so long as you are not expected to pay for the consequences of their POOR CHOICE. The ONLY reason this is any of your business is because as a taxpayer, you are expected to pay for the consequences of other peoples POOR CHOICES. Remove that compulsion and it would be NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS. The consequences of government saving us from stupidity and taking responsibility for our actions is to fill the country with FOOLS - and now the chickens are coming home to roost and we are paying for it. Their only answer is to REMOVE MORE of your freedom and choices by Threats and FORCE. Didn't you old diggers fight in a couple of terrible wars to save us from oppression from the Japanese and Hitler? Didn't you fight for FREEDOM? - Now it seems you want to Oppress people yourself! - Now that is not a good thing Izett? (is it!)
