Yes. Prohibition does two things:
1. Pushes drugs to a black market, which increases violence and cutting drugs with even more harmful chemicals and
2. Wastes money on a useless 'war'. Notice I didn't say it decreases use, because it doesn't (evidence: see Portugal case study, they decriminalised drugs and use went down). If that war money had been spent towards educating people how to use drugs safely, health care and rehabilitation, instead of putting people in jail for a victimless crime, well, you tell me if that's a good idea. The benefits of drug prohibition (if any) are far outweighed by the problems it causes. |
