No. My argument is that if weed were legal and cheap and as easy to get as cigarettes and booze are, then you wouldn't be as likely to have idiots huffing paint and glue to take the edge off.

Yep, Laws should be revamped to accommodate the idiots of the world.
The Founding Fathers could be so proud of our "progress"

One adult woman and 4 young Girl Scouts were killed. Another Girl Scout was in critical condition.

Today news reported the 23 year old driver admitted he was huffing just before this killing.

Weed attained the status it has today under the controlled substances act, signed into law by Nixon and effective May 1, 1971. I don't think the Founding Fathers cared much about it in their day.

But the US does have a big problem with drug use overall. For example, the US is ranked third in opiate use in the world, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_prevalence_of_opiat
es_use
has really drunk and drugged teens compared to Europe http://monitoringthefuture.org/pressreleases/16ESPADpr.pdf
the highest level of weed use compared to the EU, Australia, Canada, and the global average https://www.unodc.org/wdr2017/field/WDR_2017_presentation_lauch_versio
n.pdf ...

... there wouldn't be gangs around the planet jonesing to get their product to the US market if we weren't such gosh darn good customers.
