If I were a doctor, I'd write recommendations for everyone who wanted one as a harm reduction strategy.
The medical reason: harm reduction. Avoiding going to prison or even just facing the criminal justice system are societal diseases for which a recommendation is a cure.
For the sake of argument, let’s pretend to be a physician, it is within your power as a doctor to prescribe small amounts of alcohol for medicinal purposes. One of your patients mentions that having a beer after dinner helps her relax after a long day, that it helps her digestion and uplifts her spirits. But she can’t have that beer because she’s afraid of getting arrested, that the police in her neighborhood have been bullying people who have an occasional drink. Would you be playing politics if you allowed her and others like her to have that beer, to give her that relief, to avoid her having the additional anxiety of being under the jurisdiction of the courts? Would you be playing superman or playing doctor…would it be a corrupt act? Sounds a little absurd doesn’t it.
You are the one playing politics here --- and it’s a tired old brand of prohibitionist politics which will soon be another relic of history. Oh, and I think it’s fair to add that you’re also being an asshole.
