Bill: Ilegal Substance Reform
Details
Submitted by[?]: Noordelijk Bevrijding Front
Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: August 2324
Description[?]:
| We propose that the state should legalise free-market distribution of all drugs, including cocaine, heroin, and marijuana. The great advantage of this model is that it eliminates virtually all of the direct and indirect costs of drug prohibition: the many billions of Dolgars spent each year on arresting, prosecuting and incarcerating hundreds of thousands of Dorvikians, the diversion of scarce governmental resources from dealing with other, more immediately harmful, criminal activities, the tens of billions earned each year by organized and unorganized criminals, much of the violence, corruption and other criminal activity associated with the illicit drug markets, the distortion of economic incentives for inner city residents, the severe problems posed by adulterated and otherwise unregulated drugs, the inadequate prescription of drugs for the treatment of pain, the abundant infringements on Dorvikians civil liberties, and all the other costs I have not outlined. |
