In refernce to point 1, how would you define ‘illegal drugs’ (as defined by which country/state)?
My understanding is that if you applied that rule (people that have used or currently use ‘illegal drugs’ are not ‘good enough’ to be in the community) it would rule out at least ~90% of the humans I’ve ever interacted with.
I’m a legal realist so I would not count marijuana in California even though its consumption is illegal under federal law because a judge is not going to punish you for consuming it. I wrote “use” not “used”.
Are you including productivity/prescription drugs like off-label use of Adderrall or modafinil or only recreational drugs?
I think the former is substantially less dangerous, as, among others, there’s at least in theory substantially less motivated reasoning in users for wanting reasons to justify their use.
I’m not including prescription but off label use of Adderall or Modafinil as I do indeed think they can increase productivity (for some) and buying them doesn’t enrich drug gangs.
