| Message | We oppose punishing drug abusers as addiction is a disease and not a crime. But to allow private companies to profit of people's missery is something we cannot support. The government should take control over the distribution of all drugs but ultimatley strive for a society free from non-medical narcotics. -Juan Diego Romero CPG secretary of social issues |
| Date | 23:03:29, January 25, 2019 CET | From | Technocratic Assembly | To | Debating the Cannabis Legalization Act |
| Message | We enthusiastically support this bill, and hope that it is the first step to full legalization of generally harmless recreational drugs. We'd like to point out to the Communist Party that humans use addiction in many different forms, not just narcotics, to cope with life; ranging from addictive relationships, television binging, computer games and eating to drinking alcohol, smoking cannabis and so on, so just attacking drugs is attacking a symptom of a much deeper hominid drive. Many drugs, such as LSD, MDMA, psylocibin and others, when administered under the correct circumstances, actually help people with their addictive and destructive tendencies and shouldn't thus be shunned, as recent research and many ancient cultures can attest to. |

| Message | We’re handing recreational weed to the private sector because that’s one of the things that should be in the private sector. |
