tweet by Johann Hari: The core of addiction is not wanting to be present in life, because pour life is too painful a place to be. This is why imposing more pain or punishment on a person with an addiction problem actually makes their addiction worse.
that’s your view, there’s very different types of drugs, and not all hard drugs are harmful. Putting people doing harmless ‘crimes’ in jail, that is what is harmful to society.
What would you consider a “hard drug” that isn’t harmful? Isn’t its very definition a way to distinguish them from soft drugs which are less harmful?
