MARIJUANA IS THE LESSER OF THE TWO DRUG EVILS
The Green Harvest policy has done exactly what it was supposed to have
done: It limited the amount of marijuana available and drove prices
sky-high. It also had a bad side effect: a rise in the number of people
using crystal meth or "ice."
The rise in the use of ice goes hand-in-hand with Green Harvest. If
marijuana is not available, then people will find a drug that is.
There are two evils here. If society must choose between them, it is clear
that marijuana is the lesser of two evils.
