"Washington’s rates on many measures of use and abuse of alcohol and illicit substances have
remained at or above the national rates. Of particular note are the rates of past year nonmedical
use of pain relievers for all individuals 12 and older, those age 18 to 25, and those age 26 and
older. These rates have consistently been among the highest in the country.

In addition, the rates of past month illicit drug use and marijuana use among individuals age 26 and
older were consistently above the national rates; likewise, the rate of past month alcohol use for
this age group was above the national rate for all survey years."

The posts to this NG coming from that state clearly proves this to be
correct.

Well, it helps us to understand the source of the problem.

For all you mindless mooks know, the boozers and druggies in that state
are all immoral conservatives. The stats you are quoting are silent on
psychographic variables. I guess the military was unaware of that sort
of stuff when they "edu-ma-cated" you morons.
