That is a bit older than Reagan, war on drugs is a Nixon thing, but I agree with the general sentiment. Fuckem both.
Arguably it goes back to the end prohibition era and the outlawing of marijuana.
And the marijuana stuff leads back to both the tobacco and wood fiber industries. Cannabis is a threat to tobacco, and hemp is a threat to darn near everything wood fiber is used for. That one even more so because it grows so dramatically faster than a new forest.
I have heard of this. I remember reading once that sailing ships used hemp for their cloth because it was plentiful and durable. No idea where I saw that though
Definitely, but he was the one with the campaign that was named, or became known as "the war on drugs," unless I'm tripping
Yeah, I think he just comes to mind first because of the whole "D.A.R.E" thing, and his horrible effects on literally everything are still felt so profoundly today.
