Legalizing drugs

There is now a governmental proposition within the scientific committee to legalize all drug use in Argentina. The statistics are as follows (according to Clarin):

Of Argentinians 2,7 million have smoked marihuana at least once, 1,3 million have taken cocaine at least once, 249 thousand have taken extasy at least once, and 178 thousand (!) have smoked crack (my understanding of paco) at least once.

This adds up to more than 10% of the Argentinian population having taken drugs at least once. The main aim of this proposal is to elevate the drug addicts' life quality and give them rights to proper health care. There is also a supposition that all addictions are similar and in need of medical treatment before jail sentence. On behalf of the dealer, penalties will remain the same, or raise. Ley 109 is also behind this proposal. You can do anything which doesn't harm a third part or offend public moral.

Any women can have her boobs done in public hospitals, the clinics do breast surgery by the dozen. But taking her child to the hospital for drug treatment is impossible, regarding the legislation which will cause her child to be arrested in stead of treated.

I hope this sensible proposition will lead to legislative changes, although not every drug addict will want any treatment..
