Oh maybe such things that have also followed the Dutch model, such as state sponsored euthanasia.

Are you suggesting that marijuana decriminalization in Holland, specifically in Amsterdam, directly lead to state-sponsored euthanasia?

IMHO, it seems that drug legalisation is a core leftwing agenda item and that it is bad for America.

Then why didn't a left wing executive branch of government legalize drugs from 1993-2000 when they had the chance to do so, and when they could've done so by simple executive order---as they "legislated" everything else?

Because it would have been political suicide. But like I stated before of the two parties that made drug legalisation one of their main platforms in 2000, the very leftist Green party got the great majority of the vote.
