friendly reminder that portugal decriminalized all drugs and drug use dropped tremendously

and another friendly reminder that meth and heroine aren't part of a multi-billion dollar LEGAL industry that will translate in to a multi-billion dollar illegal industry which will take a HUGE hit on the economy if we try to criminalize tobacco

They aren't part of a legal industry because they never were legalized to begin with. Tobacco is something that people did all the time before, before the days of advanced science and research and as a result so many people used it that banning it would be impossible and that still holds up, because apparently people do not care enough to stop using said horrible product despite all of the warnings saying "Hey, this stuff is horrible."

And if they were legal the industry would be very small because there are safer options on the market, and the safest legal option on the market is tobacco

I guarantee you the tobacco industry would shrink dramatically if safer alternatives like cannabis/lsd/psilocybin were legal
