Methamphetamine should be legalized

Let's Get Right down to the arguments. First I'll refute my opponents then create a case. (4k char limit)REFUTATIONS A. ) Meth would create many more problems and leave millions homeless due to it's addictive overhaul upon the brain, forcing millions to buy meth and virtually leaving nothing left to feed or clothe families. B. )This is COMPLETELY Untrue, Pro fails to specify how a drug that creates flashes and strains upon the brain would help people work longer and better. C. ) This is once again untrue, Mexico and many other South American countries would destroy us in the long run in terms of Meth exporting. [1]PROS CASE Pro's Case will essentially cover the cons of Meth, and how the drug itself is counter-productive to society.1) SIDE EFFECTS-A- Cardiovascular Effects-Use of Meth leads to a far greater chance of heart failure, chest pains, and hypertension. [2] [3]B- Psychological Effects- Freqeunt Paranoia, Hallucinations, and symptoms resembling Schizophrenia. Use also leads to a higher risk of suicide and depression[2] [3]C- Physical Effects- Teeth Grinding, Pupil Dilaton, Respiratory Disorders, Dizziness, Impaired Speech, Itchy Skin. [2] [3]2) SOCIETAL USE-A- The Economy- As stated in the refutations, there are no true economic benefits to legalizing and exporting Meth, considering little to no other countries actually use it. Instead, we should consider the economic benefits coming off of the legalization of other drugs such as Cannabis. [4] B- Productivity in the Workforce- Just looking at the side effects of the drug say it all, there are no true benefits in terms of work. If anything, the workers who use Meth would sooner die of a heart attack or peel off their skin than actually work and do their job effectively. COUNTERPLAN- Con also upholds a counterplan to solve Pro's problems, and still negate, without legalizing Meth. The Answer, is to legalize Cannabis. How to achieve the plan- Legalize the possession, ability to buy and sell, and use of Marijuana. THE COMPETITIVENESS- The Economy- This would create far more jobs in the U. S, decreasing unemployment rates by almost 2% it's first year, a staggering number! On top of that, we would generate $46 million dollars PER STATE (So multiply that by 50) in the first year of sales, and this is not including exports around the world! [5]Reasoning-Marijuana would, unlike Meth, not create any sort of addiction, as MJ is not addictive. On top of that, it has none of the side effects listed by Meth (None are proven to be linked to use). Marijuana also REDUCES psychological trauma and head-aches, lowers depression, and can increase energy. This in turn means a more productive and healthier workforce, with no distractions, increasing efficiency. [6]Gateway Effect-There IS NO Gateway Effect involved with Marijuana. It's addiction rate is virtually non-existent, and most users that smoke Cannabis do not use other drugs. It's addictive properties are about 1/100,000 of Meth's, and there are no urges involved aside from hunger, also known as the Munchies.
