    People get addicted because of poverty, uneducated or just plain curiosity. Yes you can say "This is why people get addicted then go home and figure out its origin and prevent it in the future" BUT you have to deal with the situation now. Change the situation now, so it can be prevented in the future.

    25% of 100 million. Is 25 million people under the poverty line. That is a lot! With no financial benefits from the government. Welfare is non-existent in the Philippines.

    Absolutely revolting, but this isn't anything new for Asia.
    Well, killing over suspicion tier stupidity might be, but asian countries have always had a extremely hard stance on drugs.

    Not that i should say anything, Norway have one of the strictes drug laws in Europe, if not the hardest and one of the highest death rates from drugs because of it.
    It's a disgrace.

    How do people get into drugs? Not off drug dealers. But by their friends. Decrease the population of drug users decrease the spread of infection. The threat of dying should surely be enough to help addicts straighten out their lives. But unfortunately it isn't.

    Are you being intentionally obtuse? How is 2% of the population using drugs causing 25% to be poor.

    That and there is also always the argument of it helps spread normality of drug usage, which then turns more into the mentioned above.
    So you would argue that those people would have some how been productive members of society if not for drugs? Hmm, I think they would have just found a different way to destroy themselves, but that is debateable and difficult to prove either way.

    That is all totally separate from whether the government should have the right to tell you what to ingest (or not) and whether or not the "war on drugs" and prohibition were successful or not.

    Your life is your choice, your gift. You have the right to make the decisions that will define yourself as a person (whether it be success or failure), the government does not have the right to take that freedom from you.
