Bob Underwood on Drugs

Libertarian Challenger

Laws against drug use have not stopped the use of drugs

Q: Do you support the statement, "Drug use is immoral: enforce laws against it"?

A: I would vote to abolish crimes against drug use. The laws have not stopped the use of drugs. It has made the drug trade profitable. The sun is shining, the wind is blowing, and the yeast is making alcohol. We should use them.
