That chart only looks at one aspect of drug dangers. Statistically it makes sense but its really a complicated issue. Reality check: The main drug problem in America is food (mostly because of highly processed junk food). Look around and see how many significantly over weight and morbidly obese people there are. Then look around and see how many drug abusers and hardcore addicts there are.
__________________________________________________________________ I think the most logical solution to the psychoactive substance problem in America would be to legalize all psychoactive substances. Make the minimum penalty for committing any crime while under the influence of any psychoactive substance (that was previously scheduled federally) 10x higher. Require mandatory drug tests for anyone receiving/applying for welfare or food stamps. End the "war on drugs" federally. Redirect all that money into actual law enforcement, rehab programs, and churches that reach out to addicts. Legalization would end all profit for the cartels and put them out of business permanently.
