Agreed, when you think about it, restaurants still get to offer discounted meals and drinks (comparatively) and they don't really have to worry about making sure their employees get paid decent wages. Fuck them, not our problem. Only when their daily earnings falls below minimum wage do they compensate, i'm pretty sure.

Psychedelics are illegal not because a loving government is concerned that you may jump out of a third story window. Psychedelics are illegal because they dissolve opinion structures and culturally laid down models of behavior and information processing.
