RE: TL;DR 5 Sentence Summary - 14 Years After Decriminalizing Drugs, Portugal’s Bold Risk Paid Off

in #news7 years ago

Indeed! It's getting harder and harder to deny that decriminalizing drugs actually benefits a society. The extra budget that's now freed up can go towards everything from cleaning up communities to providing more beneficial programs for health and wellness.

It's not drugs that are creating criminals. It's mainly poverty and the death spiral of being born, raised and stuck in that group.
