illegal drugs generate a lot of illegal money...And this illegal money is put into the communities, generating jobs, although taxes are not paid on this money from the top, lots of taxes are paid down the line, in the form of hidden taxes,as well as sale taxes etc...Millions and Millions of dollars each year!

Question: ask someone in rehab.
How did Kirk Cobain die? Got all buzzed up and blew his fricken head off.
So no, the beginning may be positive for selfish reasons but the end results are usually tragic.

Drugs,Music n Computer r 3 greatest things that happened to Humans. I would say Drugs r good but only upto a certain xtent. It actually helps u to unleash ur imagination n opens up ur ears for good music. Makes u realise who u r. But Drugs r good only if u know how to quit em. I mean..., U should try em once to open ur mind eye. freakin trip for a while. N u should learn to trip without drugs ASAP. Did u guys know that when u guy is stoned his imagination works far better than a normal human. I was into psychedelic drugs for a while. But as soon i realised n opened my mind eyes..... i managed to learn the trick of trippin without psychedelic drugs. Thats what life is all about.
p.s: Man made booze, God made Grass... Who do u trust?

Is it the chicken or egg? Did the drugs come before the music, or (more likely), the music provided the funds for the individuals to get into drugs?

I think they could have developed the music without the drugs. To say that it made the music is just an excuse to me. IMHO

Talent is talent. While on drugs you may think you writing and performing great stuff, but without the drugs clouding your mind you could be so much more.

There are millions of people who have died, and millions more who are trying to deal with addiction because we thought we could use drugs recreationally.
