Has there been any studies into the relationship between an increase in crime/mental health problems/etc and the decriminalisation of drugs in Cali (or elsewhere?)
My argument is that collective human intuition is good enough in many cases to avoid harming society, we are the evidence, because our ancestors survived
Uhhh I guess it just works this way for some reason, what could it be?
However, I agree that all options should be questioned.
The same human intuition that has repeatedly led to things like slavery and genocide?
Sometimes fighting against our intuition is exactly what's needed. A lot of our instincts are bad but our only saving grace is that we can sometimes think our way out of them.
