Reformed Drug Warrior? PDF Print E-mail

Former Congressman Bob Barr recently appeared on Fox's Hannity & Colmes.  At about 3:20 into the clip below, Hannity asks, "Would you vote to legalize heroin and crack?"  Barr, agitated by the question, answered, "No, I would not vote to legalize heroin and crack!"

Undoubtedly, Barr supporters will say it is because Barr wants to focus on the bigger issue of getting the federal government out of the drug war.  Hopefully, Barr opponents will see that the bigger issue is that Barr has not fully embraced the non-initiation of force principle of the Libertarian Party.

It's no accident that capitalism has brought with it progress, not merely in production but also in knowledge. Egoism and competition are, alas, stronger forces than public spirit and sense of duty.
