It would be worse if the government legalized drugs in order to tax people. I‘ll explain why, many people are addicted to drugs. If drugs were legalized then people who are for example: addicted to methamphetamine,will buy them and their addiction will never end. There are even people who purposely brake an arm or leg in order to get opioids. Sometimes they get an animal and break their legs in order to get opioids, this is in-humane and cruel. Also, if all kinds of drugs were at people’s disposal then people could abuse of them or if a person has had problems in the past due to drug abuse it’s going to be a problem for them, drugs will be their temptation and they might fall again to the drug addiction.
A Discovery Channel Episode entitled: “Your Body on Drugs “ illustrates the science and effects of illegal drugs as part of a controlled study. At the moment 26.000.000 Americans use illegal drugs. Drugs affect our driving, how? Marijuana from the moment a user inhales the smoke cannabis, smoke fills the lungs. A psychoactive chemical THC infiltrates the blood and it takes just 60 seconds for that chemical to get to the brain. There it hits the memory center, the hippocampus where electrical signal controls memory and THC immediately blocks signals. Meth on the other hand stimulates the central nervous system making users wide awake and focused. It’s effect is so very immense that it leads to attention overload causing carelessness.
