It is hard to be in favor of drug legalization because that infers being in favor of its use. However, the tremendous amounts of money generated by drug sales are probably a greater threat to freedom and democracy than drug use. Drug dealers can corrupt entire countries and use them as they please.

I disagree; I favor the legality of alcohol and tobacco, but I don't favor their use.

Indeed.
