What would you say is the biggest threat to the general welfare of U.S. citizens?
 
  A. Cocaine, because of the violent crime and corruption associated
  with the large drug cartels and governments of the countries in
  which cocaine is produced
  B. Alcohol, because half of all people committing violent crimes are
  under its influence at the time of the crime
  C. Marijuana, because it is the most used illegal drug
  D. Tobacco, because it kills more people every year than all other
  drugs combined and yet is subsidized by the government

Question 2

A young adult is arrested for attempted burglary (not in California). It is his first offense for that, but he had been arrested several times as a juvenile for possession of small quantities of heroin.
 
  It is discovered
  that he attempted the burglary to get money to buy heroin. What
  would you recommend?
  A. Imprisonment to the full extent of the law with no possibility for
  probation, as there should be zero tolerance for his drug-related
  crime
  B. Treatment for acute psychosis, as he never would have
  committed the burglary if heroin had not damaged his rational
  thinking ability
  C. Imprisonment for the burglary and treatment for the heroin
  addiction, with the possibility for probation
  D. A stern warning but not imprisonment for the attempted
  burglary and treatment for the heroin addiction
