The big question is why drugs are illegal at all?
Drugs are a multi trillion dollar business. 100's of billions of dollars turning the wheels of the shadow economy every day.
Who stands to lose all that money if drugs were legalized? Who is involved in drug business? think of all of the players in the chain..
We know examples of developed countries where drugs are legalized and everyone did not become a junkie over night, or next week, or next year.
Drug money fuels a lot of things in this world, entire countries are built and destroyed using drug money, new political systems are built and presidents elected using drug money. It is convenient "invisible" hand that makes a lot of things happen in this world.
Drug problem is not about me or you becoming a junkie. Its about money, a lot of money, its about economical and political power that comes with it.
The day when drugs are legalized the convenient way to make lots of money out of "thin air" all of the sudden would be gone...
