THE WAR ON (SOME) DRUGS, 3RD OF 8

Joshua Shenk correctly diagnoses America's war on drugs as
state-sanctioned hypocrisy, a war on certain drugs only. Why? Because
it's hard to manufacture Prozac with dirt and water, whereas marijuana
can be produced at home, virtually for free, which explains why one
citizen can legally carry a briefcase full of Percodan, Phentermine,
and Valium, while another can be arrested for carrying less than one
cigarette worth of marijuana.
