I reckon if alcohol, tobacco and coffee was discovered today - all would be illegal drugs or available only on prescription. Today - we need bold moves by governments and leaders so we take fresh look at all areas of drugs law and enforcement based on scientific evidence rather that historical status quo.
Особенно хорошо про кофе.
