It's not really that.
Legalizing drug use and abuse reduces overall crime, drug usage, and damage done by drugs through more help, less stigmatization, clean tools, clean drugs.
It's literally the dream solution, however, politicians are too dumb to understand that.
It's proven scientific evidence, see Portugal.
- icebraining 8y agoPortugal didn't legalize drug use, we decriminalized it, which is not the same. It's still illegal, you just can't go to jail for using or carrying small amounts. Usually you get a trip to the police station, you're searched for drugs (which are confiscated), and you get a date to go to a meeting with a psychologist, who will usually try to convince you to give them up or, depending on the case, to enroll on a treatment program.
- gepi79 8y agoCriminalization allows crime. IMO the government should sell drugs and use the money to treat drug addicts.
