RE: Should we allow drugs and prostitution?
Let's not get silly. Pot would be fine if it were regulated like tobacco or alcohol. Things like Meth & Heroin would become a drain on the society. No matter how many people say they would never try it if those drugs publicly available, they are highly addictive and can't be taken on a 5 minute break from work.
The reason to legalize hard drugs is to be able to help addicts.
We need to enable them to move in the right direction without forcing them into a life of crime.
I agree that we need to enable addicts to move in the right direction without forcing them into a life of crime; but wouldn't addicts be helped by offering them light drugs instead of the hard ones?
I agree with you, I would forbid the hardest drugs because they are too harmful for both the individual and the society.
Although I am for individual freedom, some (worst) things should be out of reach because a moment of weakness can ruin someones whole life.
