As someone who's drank alcohol and smoked cannabis, yeah alcohol is absolutely more dangerous/obstructive to normal function but no one bats an eye if you go home after work and have a couple beers.

Hell when I was in the military it was practically expected that you were going to show up to work hungover since there wasn't fuck all to do.

Smoke a joint on leave? Kicked out, you're the worst soldier/sailor/marine/airman that's ever existed.

It's an absolute joke that alcohol is considered safe enough to be legal but cannabis isn't. Of the two, alcohol should be the illegal one.

Yup. Didn't touch anything until after I ETS'd. Except tobacco and booze, which were basically... subsidized? Yeah, heavily subsidized by the exchange stores in the 90s. A carton of marlboros was $10 lol. I literally remember people bitching and moaning when it went up a dollar shortly before I left the army. Surreal.
