You can tell a lot about a civilisation by its drugs of choice. So we should treat as significant a new study that suggests the USA’s erstwhile preferences for coffee and alcohol may be giving way to the United Stoners of America. According to the study, the number of Americans using marijuana daily has now outstripped the number drinking daily. Nearly half the USA has now at least decriminalised cannabis; in some states, Americans can even buy their weed at a drive-thru dispensary.
I have a drive-thru pot outlet just down the street from me.
