> Without the tax revenue from a legal market, there’s no funding for vital public health initiatives Education and public health shouldn't require drug money to exist and operate. If they make things better for everyone —they do— they should be funded from general taxes. They shouldn't be a controversial statement but socialism is still a dirty word in some quarters. I don't disagree that WoD has failed in its purpose but I'm not sure a public health body has ever been given the means to effectively treat a drugs epidemic.
