Legalize or no?
Personally, I think we should legalize all drugs, the war on drugs is doing basically nothing and all it really resorts to is people on the street making money when legitimate businesses could be making that money and they could be taxed, getting more money for the government to pay for programs, and taking that money off the street. Making items illegal doesn’t stop them from being bought, it just forces the law enforcement to work harder. Look at alcohol (when banned, people who wanted it still got it illegally), guns (in D.C. they still have the highest crime rates, even with guns banned. This will just put arm dealers in control of guns), and abortions (they still happen when not legal, its just that people will self-perform them, making it ultimately more dangerous for the mother). Now, I hate drugs, I’ve made a 15 minute movie on how bad meth is, and 3 short commercials on smoking, but these videos won’t stop enough people to make a difference on the industry.
I’d like to hear your thoughts!
