You can find many articles on everything in Time magazine, this is just one article of the few listed about the war on drugs and what peoples view on it our. In this article it tells the reader what the government and the states point of view of things. It states that the government believes that drug abusers shouldn't just be locked up they need help they need to be more informed and that locking them up may have affects on some but not on all. Getting the help that some addicts need could be the changing point in the rising problem.

This website gives the other sides view on this dilemma, they give the view that what the government is doing is just a joke. They say that instead of lowering the amount of drugs out there for users, its getting stronger and more pure. They give some views of how the government is profiting from this. It's very interesting to see the other sides view. I have a better understanding about how each person has a different argument. I still have the belief that what the government is doing is good.
I've reevaluated my topic, I will be writing about both sides and their view on the governments attempts to bring this war to a close

I myself think that it is indeed necessary to get information to these people about the stupidity of their actions. Though I find that some people rely to much on this phsycological approach and don't give enough credit to stomping on these people. I'm of the frame of mind that the war on drugs needs to be taken to the source. To the places where it's manufactured and sent up to trouble us. As for your opposing viewpoints kudos. It's important to get both sides of the argument just make sure you don't just have the extremists on both sides.
