RE: Decriminalizing drugs and the effect it can have on society. Addiction shouldn't be a crime.
Decriminilazation of Drugs would go a long way to producing a more healthy society. When people think of drugs, they never even consider the day to day drugs that most of us consume thoughtlessly: Caffeine, Sugar, and, according to some sources, even red meat is to be considered a drug.
Yes i myself have a caffeine addiction and possibly a sugar addiction too, i even heard cheese is addictive.
I remain convinced that in America we fight a "War on SOME Drugs", and worse, in Afghanistan. we fight a War FOR Drugs.
I believe with the privatisation of the prison system america fights a war on drugs to fullfill their contracts to keep the prisons full, while fighting for drugs in another country to provide the citizens with drugs to complete the circle
