There is no war on drug, it's a war on people.
By now we all know that the cannabis prohibition is evil and those enforcing it are not better than SS imho.
There is also a lot of substances that shouldn't be classified as such but because they don't come from BigPharma's store you aren't allowed to have access to those. LSD, MDMA, Psilocybin, ayahuasca, etc... which have been proven to be formidable mind opening drugs that can also sometime heal some mental illness under good supervision.
The most deaths come from opiates, this include heroine but mostly legal pills made by BigPharma and this is where the real damage from the drugs are and the government is complicit in getting more people addicted to this shit. Most opiates addicts will start on prescription medicines.
If you want to know more about Meth and adderral there is a wonderful new documentary on Netflix, Take Your Pills. It shows very well how endemic drug usage is in society.
I accuse the government of criminalizing drug users causing much more damage to society with incarceration and ruining those people lives than the usage of those drugs will create to most users.
