But drugs are already being abused now, and they're illegal.

If drugs are legalized, the price will go down and abuse will go up! How can libertarians, of all people, not understand the law of supply and demand in markets?

How will abuse go up when employers and state governments reserve the right to prohibit their usage?

Abuse may go up but the price will not go down. Taxation will be heavy and the black market will continue to flourish
