RE: Somalia’s Devastating Drug Problem is Destroying its Youth

in #health2 years ago

Drug addicts are found in every country. I don't understand how they can be found in such high quality in every country when this stuff is illegal. Their use can only be stopped if those selling them are caught and stopped from selling them. It is the job of the country's government to stop such activities.

Sort:  

It's impossible to stop for the simple economic factor of supply and demand. If it's profitable then someone will always supply it. This is why it never ends no matter how tough a government gets, it only makes it more profitable as the supply is reduced. This merry go round needs to end. Legalize all drugs and only spend money on rehabilitation, treatment and housing, ect that might improve the lives of these people. More jails produces nothing.

This is our position as well, perfectly said!

We respectfully disagree that government is the best solution - see below - but thank you very much for taking the time to read and comment, we do appreciate that!
