You can go to work and do the bare minimum
Wrong, I can do the maximum and even excel without giving a shit about drugs. Do them or not, you're not a better person for not doing them. Making a big deal about anyone doing them means you're as much of a problem as the person who does them too much. Drugs are entirely superfluous to someone who is master of himself. You probably avoid drugs because you can't handle them in you. Don't be a pussy, ride the tiger.
Weed and alcohol add no benefit.
Neither does personal happiness from a financial perspective. Their benefit would be merely shaking up one's perspective, albeit you can and should do this in as many ways as possible, like reading and climbing mountains and trying new sports.
they are a means of escapism
Only for the weak, for the strong they are a form of amusement. Are you against people being amused, are you against humor? Are you against fox hunting or horse-racing?

Cognitive dissonance hitting you hard. Drugs are largely self-sabotage. Everyone will do what they will do, though.
