Dark Mousy Posted October 30, 2009 Report Share Posted October 30, 2009 Did you know that one can economically prove that anti-drug laws are actually benefiting drug dealers? I'm not going to put the actual proof here as it involves a bit of boring econ stuff... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ofcourse it's benefiting them, the more eligal they are the harder they are to get, but when they have some they can charge big money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark Mousy Posted October 31, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2009 OMGAKITTY is right, it has to do with supply and demand. I loled when my teacher did that lecture too. It's not that simple. If the prices rise, the demand for it also falls, = less profit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then there's a sharp drop off in demand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sander Posted October 31, 2009 Report Share Posted October 31, 2009 What should be done is stop trying to revive the people who overdose on drugs. It was their choice to inject the said drug into their vein and get high, but noooooo, that wouldn't be very "human", now wouldn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way, it's not going to be implied, I'm pretty sure of it. Even if it would, some crazy people will start complaining, even though it's THEIR money that is being used to revive those damn druggies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most drug dealers don't take drugs them selves, it would be wasting money to them.I wounder how some of these people even started taking drugs in the first place, cus you need money to spend.

ihop Posted November 2, 2009 Report Share Posted November 2, 2009 If you think about it, if you legalise drugs, there'll be more, and the price would go down, and the dealers would stop selling it.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
