Should they legalize drug dealing?

I think that they should legalize drug dealing and all of the drugs cause it could help the economy out quite a bit and there would be fewer homeless people and there could be also more happier people out there in this world who are getting rewarded for their hard work that they couldn't get from their 9-5 jobs.

I think that everybody in all forms of life should be rewarded equally for their hard work and I think that drug dealing could really help everybody, plus there would also be fewer people in jail that way.

    Hmmm, the logic on your message is the opposite of what I would think.

    Here's why

    Drug dealing is done by people, many of who have no qualms about killing or murdering anyone to keep out of trouble.

    Drugs are illegal for a very good reason. They are harmful to the person taking them. They are harmful to the people who are around the drug user. They create absenteeism problems in the workplace. They cause health problems. Making drugs legal would only encourage people to take them (banning cigararettes for under 18 has not stopped teens from smoking even though they are legal for adults). They impair people's judgments. They make it so that people don't want to work.

    How would it help society if we allow drug dealers to sell on e-bay or at a local "drug store". I just don't see any benefit at all.

    No they shouldn't cause there would be more greedy people out there in this world, you should never live for the money, instead you should be living for God and Jesus and if you do live for God and Jesus you'll get all the rewards you want in Heaven, I know that you want to get rewarded for your hard work but look at this way, if you can't get rewarded for your hard work and if you have God and Jesus by your side, you'll get all of the rewards in Heaven!
