| 19. It would be insanely immoral to legalize meth |
|
Legalizing meth would be absolutely disastrous. There is no drug that has such severe effects on people. One single hit keeps you euphorically high for a full day, and once you come down you become severely depressed.
The only way you could legalize it would be to make people sign over their children, and make them live under long-term government care.
This is not weed we're dealing with here. It's a drug that makes people neglect their children to the extent that Portland police recently found a baby with moldy diapers. Do you realize how long that child was left in its own filth for its diaper to become moldy?
There is no way that we as a society could find a way to legalize this drug. I'll agree with legalization of many other drugs, but not meth. It's completely different.
