The harm caused by Drug abuse
Mood:  on fire
Now Playing: Government promisess drug impacts
Topic: War on Drugs (and kids)
The reasons oft cited for choosing against casual drug use are loss of family, loss of income, damage to self respect and medical impacts.
If you are prosecuted for even a tiny amount of arguably harmless possession, the government will guarantee that these come to pass. They will isolate you and stigmatize your family, you will loose all economic status until the end of your trial / punishment, then you will be required to identify yourself as unemployable to any potential employer. You will be demeaned, humiliated, dehumanized and castigated as a debtor to society and exposed to the most violent and unmanagable cauldron of disease found anywhere on theis planet while incarcerated.
Risks of drug use? your government guarantees them! Rethink the cost of the inept "War on Drugs" who is benefiting?
