Description

 							
  
  A sense of
balance and perspective informs this critique of drug-use policy from syndicated columnist Sullum (For Your Own Good,
1998).
  
  Frank Zappa neatly encapsulated the menace of drugs: “The compound itself is not a menace to
society until a human being treats it as if consumption bestowed a temporary license to act like an asshole.” It
is, writes Sullum, a question of use vs. abuse, excess vs. self-control: for every example of the berserk crackhead,
there are far, far more examples of functioning citizens of the republic who enjoy the temperate use of psychoactive
substances. Can drug use end in harm, disruption, anguish? Of course, as can excessive consumption of water. Are drug
users lazy, stupid, irresponsible, even murderous, given to sloth, madness, lust, wrath, and gluttony? No more so than
other members of society, suggests Sullum, if their intake is considered and suitable to their personal capacities. The
recreational use of drugs to elevate mood and cheer the heart is ages old and unstoppable, he writes; the mudslinging
and black-and-white condemnation of the anti-drug crowd will find no more resonance than do attacks on alcohol and
caffeine. There is scant evidence, let alone proof, that drug use will make any one individual dangerous or lead to a
life of addiction and debasement. Indeed, there is more evidence (as in actual numbers) to show that people tend to
instinctively steer clear of more pungent drugs such as heroin, and that even in heroin’s case the drug can be
used in a moderate fashion. Sullum easily pokes holes in the blatherings of a William Bennett and perceptively points
out that many drugs are associated with outsiders and the disenfranchised, seen as they ever were as threats to the
political and economic status quo.
  
  Only those with an agenda will find fault with this compelling and
judicious argument to allow for the temperate use of drugs by adults.
