The Marijuana Dispatch

Author David Frum raises some good points about usage, but I disagree with this part:

Yes, heavy drinking is bad for you too. But not like this. And anyway, our goal should be to reduce harms – not to maximize the array of harm choices on the harm buffet table.

Our role in government and society isn’t to limit choices. Freedom is about choice, not limits. I agree we need more education and role models, but limits aren’t the path to positive change, education can lead the way.
