Good or bad?

      Eh maybe 20 or something if it's a soft barrier.

      I don't really buy most arguments about age reqs on drugs since it's used to justify funding pigs and murdering POC in their homes.

      That research is worth doing, but I don't see how it won't lean towards being biased in the current system and set of incentives. The DEA literally pushes to withdraw federal funding from places that publish anything that they can't use politically.

        well the most effective way of policing age would be to legalise drugs but ban selling them to people underage.

          Then you would need to still police it. Light barrier would be requiring anywhere that sold drugs to ID and then occasionally check the stores were following the law.

          We might agree on that idk. If you raise the age above 18 or whatever the voting age is in your state / country, people will just go around the law.

            yeah basically ID it's teenagers they're going to be able to get drugs and it's not a huge deal just like they'll get alcohol

              Dope. Yeah, it's a way to make it enough of a pain in the ass kids can't go HAM as easy.
