I do have issues with the idea of legalizing the current illicit and illegal drugs. However, I can accept legalizing and regulating these drugs for medicinal use, including THC. I want to address the non-recreational users.
Why not address the base issues like poverty, dependence and all of the other factors that drive people to non-recreational use of these drugs? If we have to spend that billion, I think that it would be better spent in treatment and addressing the base causes of non-recreation use.
