Why Capitalists Hate Marijuana

Why is marijuana illegal?
Why are all drugs illegal, for that matter?
One reason, one big reason, is that habitual drug users, on the whole, live outside mainstream society. They don't work nine to five, they don't pay large taxes, they don't buy multiple cars or make large investments. They don't put their copious amounts of money back into the economy, so that the richer can become richer and maintain their capitalist stronghold on American democracy.
Yet, yes, while this is actually a commendable quality, there are good reasons why hard drugs are illegal. Someone needs to tell you that these are harmful to you and harmful to others. They kill, and seeing as our strongest instinct remains survival, it makes sense for there to be rules, regulations, laws surrounding them.
But, dear drug users! To have this rare quality of being outside the system, putting your money into ventures that do not support capitalist gain can be attained alternatively, consciously! The money you spend to fuel drug wars could be put into self-sustaining enterprises, with like-minded people, reducing your environmental impact, exploring creative energies. A myriad of things!, with the sole intent of preservation, sustainment of the environment. Honest, respectable, responsible work.
The problem remains that drug users are not living outside of mainstream society voluntarily. Their goals still lie in their current or next fix.
What about marijuana users? Highly conscious people? Marijuana enhances the senses, often through which realizations of large truths occur. Marijuana users, already familiar with the act of financing drug market instead of the 'free' market, are more likely to recognize this, to harbor anarchist/utopian ideals, to use creative energy rather than entering, say, highly competitive business ventures. They are more likely to go live on farms, in jungles and mountain ranges, live "smaller" lives in complacency.
Capitalists don't like this brand of complacency; they like competition and gain. That's what it's about! They want you to work for them, for the smallest salary they can get away with, and buy, buy, buy.
Capitalists know the effects of marijuana, they have the statistics and studies. They want to keep you away from drugs so that you will earn more and buy bigger, more expensive, more unnecessary things that they spend years in development and dollars making for you. They want you in debt, to keep you working.
So what about marijuana? Does it kill? No. So it must be the *other effects* which anger law-makers.
"Marijuana makes you lazy." Translation: Marijuana persuades you to steer away from, or lose care for, what you originally suspected was not altogether important to you.
So if the system makes you uncomfortable, restricted... if it calls you a criminal... as a pot smoker, wouldn't that, somewhat often, persuade you to maintain your pot-smokin', free-lovin', liberal-thinkin' lifestyle?
Pot is a substance which makes you think critically. And if there's anything education statistics, the American news media and our obesity epidemic can teach you, it's that our government isn't all too concerned with raising critical, intelligent, well-balanced citizens.
"That's one more lost to the Marijuanites, Mr. President, sir! We had him all the way through prep school, but it seems we lost him in college!"
This is in no way an advocation of marijuana use. It is foremost an informal essay on, yet again, the capitalist version of sustainment; the system of sucking you dry to feed the vampiric elite.
