NOTHING GOOD has happened ANYWHERE drugs have been legalized!
Has anyone seen ANY improvement in life style, habitability, cleanliness, living conditions, community improvement, common decency, public OR private behavior, etc. etc. as a result of legalizing ANY drug?
We have enough problems with alcoholics!
Why add to that problem by legalizing drug use?
How about it San FRancisco? Colorado? Oregon? Washington, DC? California? South Carolina? Virginia?
Any state that has legalized drugs? Notice any societal improvement?
Are you better off now?
No, but we're not spending billions a year that we don't have on ineffective policies either.
Besides, drugs are a result of other problems, one of which is that our younger people can't find high paying jobs anymore because we've shipped them out of the country.
We're willing to spend billions a year fighting drugs, but we aren't willing to pay a few pennies more on American made products so our kids can find work. How has that worked out?
We have enough problems with alcoholics! Why add to that problem by legalizing drug use?
Based on your arguments, we should make alcohol and cigarettes illegal. Then we could eliminate alcoholism and cancer deaths too.
Any state that has legalized drugs? Notice any societal improvement?
Bring back the high paying jobs back and you'll see improvement.
