The undertone I hear a lot is that drug use is beneficial, and would have positive effects on the population at large were it not for the outdated taboos of a backwards culture. If society was more rational and embraced drug use, then people could lead happier lives. The secret that people won&#x27;t tell you (because of the taboos) is that drugs make you more successful in work and family life. If coffee is good then by extension amphetamines ought to be double-plus good.<p>Heavily paraphrasing here - I guess this is mostly a personal observation. I am curious to understand if I should explore drug use - if so many high-performers are drug users then maybe I should give it a try.
