I am conflicted. I am against hard drugs morally, for obviously reasons, but there are plenty of examples of decriminalization of all drugs working out wonderfully. Look at Portugal for example. In the Netherlands they have safe use clinics where you can go and they will administer the drugs for you personally with new, clean needles and keep you safe in a confined room while you are on the trip. And then you come down from the high and leave and go about your day. It sounds so weird for that to be legal, but the results are pretty hard to argue with.

 

As long as you can do these drugs without harming others and without taking welfare I don't see why the government should have any say in it. Obviously, a lot of these drugs have motivational depressant qualities so if you aren't self sustainable enough to feed the habit all by yourself then it's a no go. 

 

Decriminalization and then drug testing for welfare is the best option to me.
