Repeal the Harrison Narcotics Tax Act!

 Repeal the Harrison Narcotics Tax Act! 

We have countless millions of people in the United States and all over the world who are addicted to drugs that are presently illegal. Just imagine how much money we could make for society, and which would be taken away from the criminal underworld, if we allowed doctors to treat these drug addicts with safer pharmaceutically pure and prescribed doses of all the drugs so many people are addicted to. Isn’t that what doctors are for? Just think of how much safer it would be for someone to deal with their addiction if they were working with a doctor and taking specific controlled dosages of a drug instead of whatever nasty stuff they find illegally. This would essentially eliminate accidental overdoses! 

And addicts would be paying in to the system which would help us to afford their medical bills, which we are already paying in the long run anyway!

We really have to do this if you look at the full gamut of negative consequences of our present system.

For every young kid running around with a gun and involved in street shootings, there is an illegal drug deal gone bad, or it’s retribution for some vengeful ‘self-policing’ of the illegal drug industry. The exact same thing went on during the prohibition of alcohol and that’s why we ended the prohibition of alcohol and that is why we need to end the prohibition of these other drugs. 

Every violent out of control cop has been made far worse by the fact that they are trained and ordered to ‘fight a drug war’ and not to simply ‘keep the peace’. Let the police deal with dangerous behaviour and let the doctors deal with the drug issue.

By trying to lock up everyone involved in the illegal drug industry we have locked up more of our society than we can afford to pay for and the overcrowding of our jails and prisons has forced us to give up on any hope of educating and rehabilitating people. It wasn’t always this way.

Around the globe law enforcement officials and even leadership of nations have fallen sway under the corruption fostered by the illegal drug industry. This corruption in central and south America is the root of the desperate migration of people from there to the USA.

How much more can we take before we break? This pandemic has shown us that life can be plenty hard enough without us helping to make it harder on ourselves.

It is time for the United State Congress to act and pass a bill and President Biden to sign a bill repealing the Harrison Narcotics Tax Act! 

This is the worst tax ever, it brought in no money and stopped no one from doing drugs, but increased crime, violence and misery far surpassing anything it was meant to stop!
