I’m kind of for legalizing all drugs, slowly, while also putting in place societal infrastructure for discouraging the abuse of drugs and to help people who become addicts.
I can elaborate on further reasons for legalization of drugs if requested; it is not however a top priority to me as a policy issue so I don’t focus on it as much for that reason.
What do you think about drug legalization or criminalization?
“societal infrastructure…to help people who become addicts”? You mean put the burden on taxpayers to address the social pathologies produced by increased drug use. No thanks.
well, the “burden” is already on taxpayers to pay for enforcement and jailing of such “offenders”
I suppose I think independent of the cost that it’s a freedom perhaps that’s right to have; it creates unnecessary barriers to people growing their own medicine and being able to freely trade for it and to have it
No point in increasing the burden, which legalization would likely do. Moreover, nobody has a “right” to take money out of my pocket to address their problems. It is also a threat to public safety, motorists on dope can be as dangerous as drunk motorists. Also, people intoxicated on either dope or alcohol are more likely to commit crime than sober individuals. There are studies that show an increased likelihood of schizophrenia with marijuana use. People with schizophrenia are more likely to commit crimes and require either incarceration or treatment at public expense.
Let’s take a trip on DMT. Welcome to the Dank Microwave Taco or DMT for short. Anything and everything goes in here. Be sure to share your experience on DMT with your friends, family and social media. @WiggleHard bans nothing and exiles nobody (Dont doxx wolfballs users, no posting of porn/nudes or foot fetish material unless it involves political scandals, no ads for sex sites or dating sites; do that on your own time, no solicitation for pyramid scams, no posting job advertisements unless from official job sites, no posts supporting pedophilia, not all love is love) also: (we cannot allow violations of the patriot act concerning how we speak, no calls for violence, suggesting you are personally harming someone ect. These things are not free speech protected by law but actually against the law and could get the website shut down.) (no spam posting, especially spam posting of what could be considered symbols of hate) examples: guy posting nazi flag 5 times in one day, guy posting “whitey is the devil over and over, im going to use my best judgement on this one rule)
