[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All the "high stats" kids smoked pot in the 90s and I'm sure before and after. [/quote]

Speak for yourself. I didn't and I went to an Ivy in that era and very few of my set smoked pot on any basis. We weren't judgmental about it, but pot users, like all substance users, greatly exaggerate how many people around them use the substance.

Here's the simple reality of the situation. A segment of society is high performing and can handle any substances without impeding their performance. Another segment of society cannot handle the substances without negatively impacting their well-being. We have middle class people who want to indulge in their favorite substances but stubbornly refuse to acknowledge the social costs imposed on others.

Back in the early days of pot legalization someone commented to me it would be an out of the frying pan into the fire situation and that's turned out to be true. The data coming out is off the charts and not in a good way. And there are indicators to suggest we're going to see a swing back to where things were a few decades ago. [/quote]
