Thanks, Scarlett. I think, though, that Steve hasn't misunderstood my point--in a later post, he acknowledged it. I think that the crux is that he thinks that, deep down, the War On People is being waged by those who are really trying to do the "right thing" by pain sufferers and doctors. Needless to say, I wholeheartedly disagree.

I think it is being run by people who think that drugs are Evil and that there is no real legitimate use for them. And I know that the law is set up so that there is no way to be safe other than to never prescribe them (if you are a doctor) or use them (if you are a pain sufferer). And they do everything they can to make sure that everyone knows this.

And the fact that you have "real" pain (whatever that is) or are "legitimately" trying to help people is not of much use once the DEA has you in its sights.

To be honest, it makes me a little nervous just to post my opinion on it in a public forum.

I think the "War On Drugs" is an abomination and it saddens me that we don't have any way to cast a vote tomorrow that would be a vote to abolish it. If nothing else, think how much money that would free up for War On Terror, Saving Social Security, (insert your favorite cause here), etc. Plus, it would--in a single stroke--pretty much solve most of the prison over-crowding problems in the country.
