Not many people would debate the statement that the war on drugs in the U.S. is a complete bust. Fortunately for everyone, I am here with a solution.

Decriminalize and tax them.

I’ll give you a scenario. A guy gets busted for smoking pot on his porch. The cop should toss out his joint and write him a $75 dollar ticket. There are actually a few towns that now do this..sooooo smart!!

This would eliminate all the court dates, paperwork, criminal records and in some cases, over-flowing jails full of non- violent people.

Each drug and amount would have a different fine and in each case, the drugs would get confiscated- getting them off the street.

The government would make sooo much money!

Thoughts?
