Drugs should be Legalized

The anti drug laws are a racket. A whole bunch of people pulled the wool over the publics eyes. The simple truth is drugs are cheap to make. The people making money on the shit are the proponents of anti drug laws. These laws create a market. Take something cheap that people will want, and then figure out how to limit the supply, economics 101. I'm going to set you straight even though you wouldn't believe me. If all illicit drugs were legalized for recreational use far more problems would go away than would be created. Take the money out of it. Now I'm not saying we should allow any sort of marketing the shit, in fact pushing the shit should be what's illegal. Crime would drop dramatically, I'm talking about 80 percent or more. You have any idea how much money we as a society spend on police and prisons, not to mention the actual expense of stolen or damaged property? Take a look at the tough love campaigns, cracking down on crime and drugs, and you'll see that the police, judges, lawyers, and the prison guard unions lobbyist are the chief promoters; you would shit your pants if you saw actual dollar amounts. You think you have to worry about the drug crazy lunatics? Those that couldn't function would lose their jobs. If they can panhandle $10 a day then with cheap legalized drugs they can purchase more than even the hardest drug user could consume with just that little bit of money and still have enough for something to eat. Psychedelics? PCP? For those sad souls I'd require them to go to some safe room or something where they can be monitored or strapped down but they can fry their brains as much as they want. At first there would be lots of OD's and that would cull the ranks. Then you get the chicken shit stupid people that will try it because it's legal. Good riddance. The number of crack whores and tweekers walking the streets would plummet. The rates for AIDS infections would at least be cut in half. A whole lot of people would lose a lot of money and society would save money and we'd all be safer. I truly believe this. I myself indulge with alcohol, never tried anything else, don't want to. Just think about it, drugs aren't the problem, money is the problem.
