[QUOTE="henschman, post: 2375836, member: 4235"] I support full decriminalization of the possession and sale of all drugs... I'm a "legalize it and DON'T tax and regulate it" kind of guy... but by the same token I believe a person has the right to put whatever conditions he wants on his consent to buy the labor of another person, including testing and firing for any substance he wants, whether it is legal or not and whether it makes any sense or not. For there to be a free society, people must be free to do stupid and outrageous things in their voluntary interactions with others, as long as they don't violate the rights of anyone else... and certainly no one has any right to force another person to buy his labor. As long as we're going to have people employed by the State performing useful functions (that should ideally be performed by the market) like the FAA, the State should have the power to put rational and necessary restrictions on substance use as well.
