Obviously the government has not learned the economic and criminal lessons of prohibition or that these drug problems did not exist prior to 1914 when all drugs were essentially legal including cocaine in Coca-Cola. Allowing the black markets vs. straight forward regulation, like wine and beer, has been, and remains both ignorant and stupid. Criminal dealers like it though. No black market = no criminal profits. And it is just that simple.

Whatever government touches becomes a disaster. We should stop doing that.

What ‘war’ on drugs? We are facilitating usage with ‘harm reduction’ and creating more opportunities for drug dealers.

Republicans keep talking about the problem with the cartels, Nobody talks about how America has a problem with addiction. If we deal with our addiction problem, we won’t have a cartel problem.

INSANITY! is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. We have a little over 4% of the worlds overall population, we have almost 25% of the world’s incarcerated population, mostly due to the War on Drugs. In the past forty years, the US has spent over $2.5 trillion dollars on the Drug War. After the DEA completed a Self Evaluation Based on 111 Years of Experience: it concluded that drug use has not been significantly reduced! INSANITY!

and now our police act like a military force against their own citizens, countless politicians profited many millions each from the pharma companies while pointing fingers at crime, and just this week we had presidential candidates saying they want war with mexico because: drugs.

Because it’s a business not a war

If the people fighting the war on drugs ever win it, they lose their jobs. So why would they want to win it?

am i worth helping yet?
