Ignoring all the societal implications, just the medicinal value is immense. There's research coming out right now that is discussing using psilocybin not only for tolerance, but for addiction, Alzheimer's, OCD, PTSD, depression, etc. And that's just the start, and only one drug. Apparently MDMA (ecstasy) may be useful in treating Parkinson's, which is mind blowing to me. These drugs are of immense value. I've seen it in my life, I've seen it in other's lives, and I am fully in support of full legalization.
