Don't think I have seen anything on this posted in here yet but if it has been, my bad. Legalisation of drugs could save UK £14bn, says study | Society | The Guardian
Just more facts and data for our government to ignore. If I saw Jacqui Smith on the street I would honestly be tempted to punch her and run.
We could watch porn and make her pay for it! On a more serious note. I wouldn't expect the government to make a U-turn on the issue. They/we employ scientists whose sole job it is to advise them on the best drug strategies and then they go completely against what their findings suggests. I think we're a while off mass legalisation of drugs but I think we are probably getting closer. Seeing more positive news articles on the subject helps. I also think more young people have greater experience with drugs and generally have more liberal attitudes towards them, and so we may see a shift in the public perception as they mature. Only time will tell...
Its only a matter of time until Cannabis is legalized, all the evidence is out there to prove Prohibition doesn't work and there isn't a single solid argument to show it does.
