This isn’t actually a reason, though, as it begs the question. Cocaine could definitely be manufactured legally if made legal.

- gwd 5y agoThese are what I consider to be the strongest reasons why my child shouldn't do cocaine in my country right now. If they go to a country where it's well-regulated, then the cost/benefits calculation changes quite a bit.
- sidlls 5y agoHow does it beg the question?
- gwd 5y agoNot GP, but a lot of people have trouble distinguishing "illegal" from "wrong", and the cause and effect. It's "wrong" to take cocaine because it's illegal; it's bad to legalize cocaine because it's "wrong". Cocaine is bad because of all the harms it causes to society; but a lot of the harms it causes to society (some of them listed above) come about solely because it's illegal.
