If you legalize drugs crime will decrease. Look at FBI records and it has shown that durring prohibition crime rate went up, then went back down to its lower level after the government got rid of it. When a black market exists for something in fairly high demand, prices shoot up and crime increases. Talk to anybody who is in a gang (the business side of it, not the retards that run around throwing up signs) and they can tell you this is true. When the drug prohibition started the crime rate went back up. Why would crack heads steal if they can buy crack for next to nothing if it was legalized? The main crimes commited due to the war on drugs are the possesion and selling of drugs. Legalize drugs and all these crimes dissapear. I don't think there will be any more crack heads out there if you legalize crack. Would you start doing crack if it was legal? Probably not, and neither will everyone else. We all know crack is bad. People that want the drug will get it either way, if it is legal or not, so why make it illegal?

Government may be for the people, but the national government is NOT meant to give handouts to the less fortunate. Local government is for this, which it does much better. Local government used to do this in the past. National government is there primarily to make sure the states don't get out of hand, to regulate state commerce and international commerce. I don't want the national government forcing me to give my money to people who may make less than me. If I want to help them, then I will on my own. If you think people who make less money than you should get some money, then you should give some of your own money to them...but would you do this since you think the less fortunate deserve better?
