Why is "feeling normal" a legitimate pharmacological aim, but "feeling high" is not?
Because generally drugs that make you feel better than normal have enough negative physical effects to be "not worth it".
IMO they should either outlaw all the currently legal "high drugs" (tobacco, alchol, etc.) or make them all legal and tax the hell outta people that buy em so that we get some benefit from their addiction. I'd rather have drug money go to the government than to drug dealers.
