No but we should pay mroe attention on people who suffer with drug addiction, it will have a positive impact on the economy

 @9RF48S4from Massachusetts  answered…9mos9MO

Drugs are good and a good business and the persecution of their usage and sale has been primarily a racist and oppressive one

 @9RBYBX6from Nova Scotia  answered…9mos9MO

Yes, but in a sense that can benefit us in a medical view. For example, microdosing psilocybin has been said to assist with a deal of depression, anxiety, migraines and other negative effects on the human body.

If used and controlled for medical purposes, I am for it.

Yes we should decriminalize all drugs. But we need 100% rehabilitation support for drug users. Like Amsterdam.
