Although legalization solves many problems, it creates need for tighter governmental control of substance use. Laws and regulations need to be passed in order for legalization to be controlled. I'm not pro-drug. I'm against drugs. Don't do drugs.
Drugs are a real handicap.
The governor emphasizes the need for restrictions on drug use. Laws need to address a legal age to start, selling to minors, and driving while under the influence of mind-altering substances. These laws should relate to the current laws passed on tobacco and alcohol use. These restrictions will obviously demand fine-tuning if drugs are legalized, but in the end, these regulations could make the difference between a successful legalization scenario and an unsuccessful one. The U.S. government needs to take action and effectively work towards winning the American drug war.
