Criminalizing drug use wastes government money and resources, does not have a significant impact on decreasing drug use, and can further drive those with a history of drug use into poverty, making them less likely to recover from addiction

There is a great deal of misconception in those who oppose the legalization of drug use. The people who use and abuse drugs are not moral failures in need of punishment, they are sick people in need of treatment. The criminal justice system has been a total failure in treating the epidemic of drug use and abuse. It is time to listen to the experts: doctors, social workers, counselors, and psychologists, all of whom agree that drugs should be decriminalized and treated as a health issue, not an issue of crime.

Cartels would have less business, protecting American borders/national security, and a key part of recovery is safe use. Addicts would be safer, given cleaner and sterilized substances as to reduce fatality rate of US citizens.

Not having resources like Addiction Prevention centers can prevent the public from knowing the basic dangers of substance abuse and leave them uninformed and open to harmful things they know nothing about.

Drugs are a matter of personal choice, as long as they are done so privately and safely in which no harm can be done to anybody.
