I think I am pretty supportive of decriminalization from a Darwinistic perspective. Good way to start weeding out people who have genetic tendencies towards addiction and substance abuse etc. Sad but true.
The main problem i see is if ( note i said if ) more people end up on hard drugs what kind of impact that will have on the public healthcare system.
Maybe leaving addicts on the hook for their own rehab or OD costs
Besides if more people are satisfied with being high all day that just increases my ability to compete in a competitive workforce for better jobs
With regard to all this talk what do people think of this in the context of when flooding a society with easy access and inexpensive drugs was considered a way to weaken a country prior to or during a war?
Historically i believe this was done in some south china area states and opium by the British?
Seems to discredit the concept that easy access to drugs doesn't increase use?
