What’s worse the effect of the War On Drugs or Addiction?
11 Sep / 09
Q K asked:
War On Drugs raises the price of drugs making traffickers super rich including terrorists. We’ll lose the Afghan war cause the Taliban has all the money coming from their opium trade. The fight against terrrorism is at stake cause we stick to enforcing drug laws that are unenforceable. We need to legalize, regulate and tax them like any tobacco product is. Instead of deficits fighting drug cartels we’ll have profits to be used to educate and rehabilitate drug addicts.

Why don’t you ask Palin. I hear she loves this stuff.
So, you are saying the end of terrorism and victory in Afghanistan can be achieved by legalizing, taxing, and regulating illegal drugs?
I mean, who is going to be sued when someone buys one of the new, legal drugs, and dies from an overdose? You think by legalizing illegal drugs, that they are no longer dangerous, addictive, or will have to ability to ruin the live of the user and of those around them? You want more criminals that have to steal and do other things just to get their fix? I don’t think so!!!
Rehab isn’t helping much either. It’s feeding into the problem. Many addicts use with the comfort of knowing they can always “clean up” when they get in too deep.
If rehab was cut, the people who used drugs irresponsibly would eventually die off & serve as examples of what happens when you’re an idiot.
People would no longer use hard stuff like heroin or meth because they’d remember the ones who did eventually died – rather than ran crying to rehab only to get a chance to do it again.
Marijuana should be taken out of the argument/conversation completely. Noone’s dying over weed or killing people in car accidents over weed. It just makes sense that responsible adults should be able to choose for themselves.
So no NO rehab. Let’s let people fall one by one on their own indiscretion & serve as living (or dying) examples for others who might take the same road.
Giving addicts a cushion to fall on only feeds the problem.
