Drugs are natural or synthetic chemicals that affect biochemical processes in living organisms. They differ from food in that food usually tastes better.

Drugs are generally divided into two categories - the ones your mother gives you (which don't do anything at all), and the ones a hookah-smoking caterpillar offers you (and you know you're going to fall).[1] The latter are frequently illegal, or at least heavily regulated.

Drugs are bad, m'kay? Just say no. Or, say yes, but only if you're really bored.

A few well known drugs include:

Drug liberalization

"Drug liberalization" refers to elimination of laws prohibiting the sale or consumption of drugs. Arguments presented on behalf of drug liberalization are:

  • Consumption of non-lethal or semi-lethal drugs in limited quantity is not harmful; thus, complete prohibition of drugs does not make sense.
  • Consumption of non-lethal or semi-lethal drugs in limited quantity is a personal matter; thus, State interference in that matter is a violation of property rights.
  • Legalization will expand the legal, taxed economy.

The economist Milton Friedman showed that criminalization of drugs results in 10,000 deaths per year.[citation needed]
