The Rev. Andy Bales heads out the glass doors of the Union Rescue Mission in a suit and tie. He rolls his wheelchair toward the sun-baked concrete of Skid Row, then stops and wrinkles his nose. That putrid smell youre smelling right now thats somebody smoking Spice, he says. On this block of San Pedro Street in downtown Los Angeles, just south of 5th Street, more people are openly smoking synthetic marijuana known on the street as Spice than are smoking conventional cigarettes.

The purpose of some people's lives is to serve as a cautionary tale for the rest of us. There are few things worse in this world than losing someone you love to drugs, socially or physically, but if you know a druggie, and most of us do, you will learn that only they can save themselves. The outcry for government intervention will deliver easily forecasted results. The government will use the act of controlling drugs to create more government employees made loyal by the promise of government pensions and corral us all into digital money to invade our privacy, control our spending and tax us with impunity.
