there is an easy way to turn people off illegal drugs, but no one has the balls to do it.
Drugs? What does that say about the human condition when every single culture and society is too gutless, too useless to live the life they were given. They all have to put something in their system in order to make their pointless lives more bearable
That's a pretty simplistic view of drug taking. It could {perhaps} be more accurate in regards to addiction, but not all people who take even addictive drugs are or will become addicts.
Quite correct AA... it is a furphy..
And John Smith.? make the harmless... YES.. ''relatively" harmless drugs legal. LEGAL.
Yep that would surely save many people much grief , and Govts HUGE savings. In fact HUGE REVENUE to Govt.
Balance the budget,,?? don't make me laugh till I cry please....
no need to lay off workers, or cut assistance to the disadvantaged , the cancer sufferers , the poor, the mentally ill, ..
not necessary...
there is a massive market out there that is being given,
yep , undeniably GIVEN to criminals to manage.
THAT is criminal. It is time for the truly brainwashed voters to realise the harm they are responsible for in supporting this bogus war on drugs..
'cos people will ALWAYS use drugs.. it can't be stopped by repressive regimes.. in fact.. what is really the problem..??
..it is illegal..
a piece of legislation from an enlightened govt would solve all the problems, other than individual issues, with the stroke of a pen.
And NO govt can or should try to intervene in personal health issues, they should be looking at the causes..not demonising and punishing the users.
Undermine criminal organisations ..Yep ,, easy peasy
Take AWAY the source of the profits for crims ..turn it into a benefit for society..
why is this so hard to understand...?
