.If ecstasy for example is removed from the class A list and people are allowed to use it or just given a warning and all of sudden thousands of people end up brain damaged each year how much does that cost the state in care |
That is part of the point of making it legal and tax'ing it, the actual ingredients and dose will be more controlled and it will be a purer product free from the nasties a select few manufacturers put in there.
More harm has come to those using the so called legal alternatives which are much more harmful than the actual MDMA they are trying to mimic. Those more damaging alternatives would not be needed if people were not scared of getting the real thing.
As much as that document says 43% of users say its addictive, I have to call complete and utter bull on their stats. I know many many people who take E and not one of them is addicted to the product, or would say they were. The heaviest users out of them still only use at the weekend. That's not to say that there are people out there who might become psychological addicted to them but I would put that in the very low single digits. Painkillers are probably more addictive.
People have been using E since the 70's so im wondering where all the braindead crazy people are. Don't confuse the exctasy/weed only users with those drawn face skinny ill looking drug users who take everything under the sun.
