Proof the War On Drugs Doesn’t Work
The war on drugs in not effective. Period.

Based on Facts, legalizing drugs reduces crime and saves lives.Portugal had a wild idea to legalize all drugs throughout the country by decriminalizing them. This change had a dramatic effect on the society.

In 2001, when it went into effect, Portugal had 80 over dose deaths. By 2012 that number was down to 16.New cases of HIV dropped as well from 1,016 in 2001 to only 56 in 2012.

If reducing punishment helps curve the negative effects of drug use, why is America still spending tens of Billions of dollars each year “fighting” it?
