Best answer:

Answer by David
I have ADD and a very addictive personality. In high school I was addicted to cocaine, now in college I’m addicted to cigarettes. I also take Adderall, which is surely addictive, and I think it has helped in some ways to “replace” my cocaine addiction. I’m a drinker and smoke pot too, but these are social activities and I have no problem stopping myself with them if I want to.

Do You Believe We Should Decriminalize All Drug Use the Way Portugal Does?

Question by No Chance Without Thor: Do you believe we should decriminalize all drug use the way Portugal does?
Portugal decriminalized all drug use and they have now effectively cut all drug addiction in half and no longer sends drug users to prison. Instead, drug abuse is treated like the health problem that it actually is.

I wish America would do this, but we have too many cartel lobbyists to make sure we don’t do something that makes sense.
