PERSPECTIVE
Redefining Drug Use as Addiction, Not Criminal Behavior
QUESTION
What costs and tradeoffs should we be prepared to accept?
ANSWER
One result of decriminalizing drug use is that more people may
experiment with drugs. Legalizing drugs may lead to more drug abuse in
inner cities, where addicts are more numerous and there are few
treatment programs.
