Does anyone really want crack to be legal?

I don't think it should be legal. But I don't think jail sentences should be passed out if you're found possesing it. I think it should be treated as a health issue.

ld you be confortable knowing that your next door neighbor or a tenant in your apartment building was selling or using crack?

Sure, I'd buy an extra bolt lock, though.

How would we go about legalizing and controlling such a thing?

I don't want to legalize it. I don't think many people do. Even the Green platform say it just wants people who are really addicted to it to be able to get it on prescription.

But for all drugs, the punishment is obscene. That is one of the major things piling people up in jails, where they can slave for a few years for some corporation for cents a day.

Bush I and his drug war, it falls right in line with the 'cheap labor Conservative' label.
