No. It’s an ideology of the elites.

I appreciate these posts quite a bit. Can you give another example of “playing the long game”?

Is there evidence people do drugs to fill a social need?

You still need criminalization as a “stick” to either get people into rehab or not take these drugs at all.

People seem to forget how devastating drugs are to communities. We see it right now with meth and poor whites. It was (is?) true about African Americans and crack cocaine. There is no “legalize it” solution with these drugs. If you want to rehab low level offenders, fine. But high level offenders, the people running the operations, deserve their sentences.

That’s what I was looking for when I clicked the link here. Do you have any recommendations for that kind of stuff, evidence-based if possible?
