Yes, agreed on the RLD, not sure about the weed shops, that will at least break the connection with tourism though locally it will just go underground. Weed shops always were legally grey for several reasons. But I'd rather have them limit the tourism first, that would automatically reduce prostitution and drug sales to the point that those industries would likely shrink with some reduced crime as a side benefit. |

When there's a will there's a way. I think what will end up happening is that locals will just buy the drugs, and then sell to the tourists.
Pushing something underground or away, or making it illegal etc... It never works, it only makes it worse.
The war on drugs has lost, and if anything I hope that it's shown us that with both drugs and sex work, you can never stop it, so the goal should be harm reduction.
That said.. I do like the idea of taxing flights into Schiphol. Especially those from England.
Every single time I go, it feels like the English are just the worst offenders.
