Do you think cannabis should be legalised in Australia?
The Liberal Democrats in the UK have pledged to fully legalize marijuana and establish a recognized and regulated industry around it. This seems like a sensible idea to me. Let's face it: people will smoke cannabis whether it is legal or not. We have already lost the war on drugs, so if you can't beat them, legislate it. There are numerous advantages to legalizing cannabis. The Lib Dems predict they could raise £1 billion in taxes, but that’s just the beginning. Legal sales of cannabis would contribute to GDP instead of being part of the black market. Additionally, drug dealers could be legally employed, which would help decrease the unemployment rate, as anyone working in the underground economy is technically considered unemployed.
Currently, there is no regulation regarding the sale of cannabis. There are no age checks and no restrictions on quality or potency. Very strong varieties, often referred to as 'skunk', are widely available with no more than a £20 note needed for purchase. There seem to be no significant drawbacks to legalizing cannabis.

There’s a point to be made about the benefits of marijuana oil in treating some forms of ellipsis and for people who are chronically ill and in constant pain . And yes I think this are SHOULD be legislated , as for the other areas I don’t have the knowledge or the experience to comment on it
I think all drugs should be legal but if you mess up while taking drugs the penalties should be very strict.
