About this ebook

When tough-on-crime laws passed 30 years ago during an era of drug-fueled violence, they were supported across the political spectrum. The subsequent “war on drugs” sent non-violent offenders to prison for decades and, in some cases, life.

Even gangsters in prison get drugs smuggled in. Why even try to stop the traffic the bottleneck always breaks. Simple band-aid to temporarily stop people by illegalizing drugs even natural substances that end up costing tax payers money that even prisons have a private sector. Doesn't make sense to stir up more violence by making the penalties more stiff. Cocaine and crack both are essentially the same but one receives lighter penalties than the other (medically speaking via different route of administration)
