More than 22 million Americans age 12 and older - nearly 9% of the U.S. population - use illegal drugs, according to the government’s 2010 National Survey on Drug Use and Health.
The overall rate of drug use is only slightly higher than the 2009 study but nearly a percentage point above the 2008 survey.
“I am encouraged there were no significant increases in drug use over the past year,” Gil Kerlikowske, the U.S. director of national drug control policy, said in a statement. “However, today’s survey also shows that drug use in America remains at unacceptable levels.”

After Odummers speach last night I might be interested in some drugs!
All Obama voters for sure!
Thats just the people who ADMITTED to it. How many professionals (and there are an UNBELIEVABLE number who do) would admit using drugs, even when assured of anonymity?? Remember, the BIGGEST users of drug are in the 45-65 age group. You know, the ones running the world. Presidents. Teachers. Legislators. Cops. Judges. Senators. So much for the "stupid", "dumb", and "lazy" arguments....
and far far more abuse and are addicted to legal prescribed drugs
