DECRIMINALIZE POT AS WAY TO END THE WAR ON DRUGS

We should decriminalize all drug usage, not just marijuana, by doing
this we would over a period of time win the so-called war on drugs.

It may take some time but it would work. You would have to do two
things: educate our children from an early age, such as when they
start playschool or even before that; the other would be that all
drug users register so they can be treated by our health care system.

It would be cheaper to do this than what we are doing now. The down
side of doing this is the unemployment it would cause doctors,
nurses, police, social workers, not necessarily a bad thing.

And think about all the tax and medical benefits we would get if we
were to do this.
