What is it with the drug laws in this country?

Many scientific studies out there that alcohol and tobacco rank well above other drugs like ecstasy and marijuana in both detrimental physical effects as well as societal effects.

However they are both legal, while others are not. Why do you think this is so?

It isn’t money, b/c I know damn well that if ecstasy or weed were legalized they would both be multi-billion dollar taxable industries!
