Should the US decriminalize all drugs like Portugal and Norway ?
Several other countries have decriminalized all drugs with much success, isn't it time we consider a logical solution to a major problem that will never ever go away?

Yes. People are going to do recreational drugs whether they're legal or not. Absolutely no need to lock someone in a cage because they want to have a good time.

I haven't heard about Norway doing that, but yes, cannabis and some other ones should be regulated like alcohol and tobacco are

It's Big Pharma that are killing people. More people die from opioid ODs than illegal street drugs. I say put the executives of the big pharmaceutical companies on trial for manslaughter. They have a bigger body-count than El Chapo.
Get the guys carrying the briefcases, saying they're " legitimate businessmen." They're making millions taking advantage of addicted people. Leave the pot-smokers alone, go after the REAL killers.

It should be on a case by case basis. Portugal is too addictive to be legalized, but I'm not sure about the substance, Norway.
