I know we all know that capital uses drug abuse and the larger sphere of vagrancy as a social pressure/conditioning tool, but it's crazy to me that people always vote to do everything to make "crackheads" and other of that outcast social caste's lives worse.

I present my very good solution to the drug "problem" in haiku form
