Along the same lines as my original reasons, I think it would be ok to have a little before working, depending on tolerance and transportation issues. Most people I know could do with a drink or two to relax them and it would also make the world an earier place to live.

I care about being on the road with someone who is impaired in their judgement and reflexes. My brother was almost killed in an auto accident by someone who was high on pot. The guy was too stoned to realise that the light wasn't in his favor and slammed into my brother's car in an intersection.
Using it, and using it responsibly is a big difference. Please don't think I object to just driving under the influence of drugs. I want much stiffer drunk driving penalties, too. Loss of your driving license should happen the first time. Can't get to work? Too bad. Jail time for any injures or accidents caused. Fatal injuries should be tried as murder, not manslaughter.
Impairment is impairment. No one who is impared be it by drugs or alcohol (or a lack of sleep) should be allowed to operate a motorized vehicle. It's an instant recipie for accidents.
You make a very good point here (and I am so very sorry to hear about your brother, I hope the accident was not too serious). Most people I know and/or have experience with driving under the influence are extremely paranoid due to not wanting to get caught/arrested. I do agree that personal responsibilty is a major factor, whether driving under the influence of any substance (legal or not, some prescriptions can mess you up just as bad or worse than drinking and smoking) or even driving tired. Hell, I know folks who don't need to be on the road when they are fully awake and alert. Boggles the mind.
I also like the point about losing the license after the first time and not being able to make it to work (which would go for any drug, not just alcohol).

My point is that saying that 'everyone should be required to have this' is just as bad as saying 'no one should have this ever.' Perhaps a sentiment of 'anyone who wishes to indulge should be free to do so provided they're not infringing on someone else's right not to,' may be more in order? OMG! I'm being politically correct! AAAIIIEEE!!!!
See, here you have hit upon my basic life philosophy (you should be allowed to do what you want so long as it does not infringe on others' ability to do the same, basically the Golden Rule) which we appear to agree on spectacularly (a quality I find I have with many Browncoats [the agreeing, not so much the life philosophy]).

My personal feeling about smoking at all is, that ALL smoking should be banned in public buildings as well as a minimum of 50 feet from any public building entrance.
I have very mixed feelings on this. I worked in a pool hall on campus at Georgia Tech when I was there, and at some point in my time at school they decided that they would ban smoking in said pool hall because it is a public school and therefore a government building and they could do that. Buisness suffered, which was bad for me. Secondly, I am a bartender, and last year in Georgia they banned all smoking in any establishment that you didn't have to be carded to get into (I work for a family restaurant chain). This very much impacted my actual income in a very negative way. People tend to drink more if they can sit and have a smoke with it, which I prefer to do myownself, being a smoker of regular cigarettes as well.
On the other hand, I do see the concern you have for the ban in
