There's simply no comparing alcohol, bad as it is, with fentanyl, heroin, cocaine, meth and others. Everywhere they've tried legalizing hard drugs they've regretted it and eventually reversed course. The idea that we should shrug and let drugs in, along with millions of unvetted illegals, is without a doubt the stupidest decision an administration has come up with. You want to double down on stupid?
Where did I say anything about “letting drugs in”?
The reason drugs are “coming in” is because America has created a black market demand for them
The same way there is now a massive black market operation for cigarettes in Australia after taxing them so high to discourage use
Imagine if America stopped spending trillions of our tax dollars on telling adults what they can do with their own body.
Imagine if we stopped spending $50,000 PER PERSON to lock someone up in prison over what they do with their own body
Imagine if in addition to stopping the trillions of our tax money on that, we also regulated and taxed the drugs the way we do with the other drugs in our country, like alcohol.
self governance. You don’t need the government to hold your hand and protect you. We’ll be alright
