Long before doctors connected the dots between smoking and cancer, they knew from the very beginning it caused emphysema, yet in the same breath the Surgeon general suggested smoking was in fact good for you.  While I'd like to believe times have changed with government being more truthful, here we sit decades later, with our current government on the one hand saying they indeed recognize the dangers of drugs and their addictive properties, yet allowing the sale of said drugs within our community  in the name of profits.  So what kind of lesson is that teaching?  If we want kids to understand the difference between right and wrong, good or bad, then I strongly suggest we get them out of public schools,  because they will not learn those things there, nor is it the job of government to be teaching such things in the first place.
