    This whole approach seems so bloody sensible. Why is it not adopted everywhere?

      because those who push for a war on drugs are either involved in drug trade or benefitting from it.

      Drugs have been financing wars since opium was first made illegal by an American Missionary in the Phillipines in the 17th century.
      Today, North Korea for example, many sanctioned countries sell drugs to finance their military/etc

    You were going so well until you went on the Harm Reduction tangent. Drug use is a human right, LEGALISE ALL DRUGS

      yeah but legalizing automatically reduces Harm. so legalisation in itself is a harm reduction practice.
      But even better if taxes from substances could be used for addiction prevention and information.

      Nonetheless harm reduction is key, and practically speaking, drug decriminalization needs to come before legalization of any form. The public would not be okay with legalization without first becoming comfortable with decriminalization.
      In any case with harm reduction, it isn’t as if drugs are inherently safe. Similar to how we educate people on alcohol, people need to be educated about drugs and harm reduction during drug use to be safe.

      @@coolkid9967 Decriminalisation, in a Medicalised model is Prohibition 2.0 The best way to bring the public along is tell them the truth, not Trojan horse legalisation through decrim. EVERY drug death in the current environment is because of Prohibition, every house broken into by a desperate drug user, every murder in the street between rival drug gangs
