WHAT IS AT BOTTOM OF MORAL HIERARCHY?

With regard to the election concerning marijuanas' re-legalization in 
Nevada, I have only one question for the voters to ponder once I point out 
that marijuana prohibition itself is the experiment in social engineering, 
and attempts like this effort to correct the problem are not such 
experiments, as is often postulated by marijuana foes.

Do drinking, gambling and whoring occupy a moral space above that of pot 
smoking?
