Minds sometimes need altering on a massive scale.
(2)
The idea that 'mind-altering drugs' could be extremely valuable to various cultures is not a new idea. Many ancient cultures have been influenced by such 'mind-altering drugs.' The most famous is the Uleusinian Mysteries (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eleusinian_Mysteries). The general idea is described in The Road to Eleusis by Gordon Wasson. I read it back in the '80s (I think) after my '70s Acid Trips. Highly recommended. Indeed, one of the most common mind-altering drugs, Marijuana, is well known as a 'peace-maker.' (Hmm. Should we begin supplying the BSHL with free Ganja?! - Let's do it!)
Sip.
Now that grass-roots-America has begun to undo the creepy idea that Ganja should be a 'Schedule One Drug,' my guess is that American culture will begin to 'lighten up' a bit.
