In our day, legalized drugs are sweeping through society. Candy nicotine products are being placed on the market. Super caffeinated drinks (aka energy drinks) are a rage.
Those are but the latest ways drugs are being tossed at us.
Other ways legalized drugs flow through society? Prescription drugs. One doesn't need to have much pain -- at times none at all -- to be prescribed a pain medication.
And, the over-the-counter medicines? We take them abundantly.
What percentage of our population drinks alcohol? I haven't heard, but it is a big portion of us.
Our day, then, is an age of drugs. There is such widespread use of illegal drugs, but if we count just the legal drugs, alone, it should give us pause as to what kind of society we have become. We are a society that has turned to drugs.
