Ecstasy
[ send me this paper ]
A 10 page paper tracing the development of the 'designer drug' ecstasy and the events leading to its proclamation as illegal in the US, and arguing in favor of a continued ban on legal status. Proponents claim it to be harmless, but the evidence appears to indicate otherwise. Even if research did indeed come to the point that it could be concluded based on the facts at hand that there is no long-term damage (i.e., brain damage or death), the conclusion would still only be a partial one in that we are still unsure of precisely what constitutes brain damage. For the present, ecstasy's inclusion on DEA's Schedule I is one that should be continued. Bibliography lists 11 sources.
