$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('TommyJefferson', 'T')he legal problems with illegal drug use extend out further than just people who are incarcerated. Your one-in-a-thousand does not include the millions and millions of people who:

• got probation, but now have a drug conviction on their record
• had to pay substantial fines, attorney fees, and court costs
• failed a drug test and were fired, or didn't get a job
• had their children taken away by a court because of drug use
• didn't receive government benefits because of drug use
• got excommunicated from their family support group because of the social stigma
• had their money stolen by unscrupulous black-market dealers
• lost their government license to earn a living because of drug use (RN, CPA, bus driver, MD, real estate broker, pilot, etc.)
