It&#x27;s brilliant. I wonder why people have a knee-jerk reaction to drugs as being &quot;bad&quot;. Research and writing like this are quite promising.<p>&gt; Only 10 percent of drug users have a problem with their substance. Some 90 percent of people who use a drug—the overwhelming majority—are not harmed by it. This figure comes not from a pro-legalization group, but from the United Nations Office on Drug Control, the global coordinator of the drug war. Even William Bennett, the most aggressive drug czar in U.S. history, admits: “Non-addicted users still comprise the vast bulk of our drug-involved population.” - Why Animals Eat Psychoactive Drugs [<a href="http://goo.gl/7vB8Eu" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;goo.gl&#x2F;7vB8Eu</a>]<p>Drugs not only can be used responsibly, but they should be. We are needlessly Luddite about this type of stuff. I think within the next decade we&#x27;ll see a paradigm shift towards a much wider societal acceptance of &quot;brain drugs.&quot;
