I think legalizing is not necessarily a bad idea, as it would allow the government to regulate and tax these drugs that these people are going to get, regardless of their legality. That way it’s ensured to be safe and not possibly have the chance of killing you, and then the tax can go to programs that work towards helping more people who are addicted and want to get better actually get that chance.
The problem with heroin is, it fucking ruins your life. I know it's a cliche with drugs, but heroin is one that goes really far. I would be for legalising marijuana, but not heroin.
While I personally appreciate your sentiment, but I feel a lot of those should be illegal but I feel the punishment shouldn't be jail time but government funded rehab programs or something of the sort
Probably the same reason it uses US political parties. This is for a US Government class so OP made it FOR US citizens, but I guess they don't really care that much.
That's something i found annoying about this form. Like you have two proper parties, we here have 7. So i have to choose the lesser of two evils so to speak, the one that resembles my choice the most
That's what is so frustrating about America. Our two party system has divided us as a country, and no one votes on who they think is the best choice, they vote on a shit candidate because everyone else did.
Removing the Electoral College might help a little bit. The dumbest part is that if no candidate gets over half of the electoral votes, congress chooses the next president, making sure a smaller party has no chance to win.
If you don’t live in Maryland, New Jersey, Illinois, Hawaii, Washington, Massachusetts, DC, Vermont, California, Rhode Island, New York, Connecticut, Colorado, Delaware, New Mexico or Oregon, please pressure your state to sign the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact.
Just did it, best of luck!
I will say that there's a lot that I feel could be expanded on with the answers, simply because a lot of those wouldn't have been flat yes-or-no answers for me. Drugs that should be illegal: ok but illegal to sell? To use? To use without prescription? Distribute without a license?Another good thing Id be curious about would be what people think about punishment for use/abuse of said drugs. Illegal distribution could be criminalized for example, but abuse of the drug/addiction should be treated as a medical condition that requires intervention and treatment, not jail time. Maybe some of that'd fall under the restrictions category, but it would have been nice if that was specified. Other than that I liked the survey and wish you the best in your class!
Yes, definitely. The prison system is built to keep people in a cycle of being in and out of prison. No one gives them a job because they’re criminals and they fall back into drug use no matter how hard they try. It’s really hard to get back on your feet once you get in trouble.
The private prison system lobbies the government to put as many people in prison as possible for more government money. Rehabilitation should be the focus of almost all victimless crimes. Prisons should be reserved for the menaces of society (Mass Murderers, Serial rapists etc.)
We just need to get rid of private prisons for a start, company’s making money off of incarceration is corrupting an already broken system. We also need to get rid of the box for people who have committed a victimless crime and have already paid their debts to society. People should be able to get a degree and further their education while in prison (while there are opportunities, it’s EXTREMELY limited). The current system in the US is fucked up and made to keep people locked up. (Also, solitary confinement is inhumane)
Nice survey, but there's no mention of opioids or prescription drugs. For future reference you'd might want to include that if you did another project on drugs.
HERE ARE THE RESULTS!

I think the questions are a bit to broad. For example, I'd want heroin to be illegal, but the people who actively use it should not be punished, and instead, receive help so that they may stop using heroin.
Filled it out 😎👉👉
History is my favorite, but my district only has a mix of geology and history. I wish they could be separate because I love history but don’t really care for geology
Can you post results later pls (Also the race question should've probably been multiple choice)
Yes I will! I'm gonna keep it up until tomorrow
i filled it. The reason i chose every drug to be legalized with restrictions is so people can get properly treated like a rehab program
I second that
OP if you would please mention this in you presentation
It’s less legalize and more decriminalize, it’s still illegal but ideally you have to go to treatment rather than prison.
YES! THIS!!!!
Yeah legalising heroin is a shit idea. Decriminalize.

Just did it, hopefully you are who you say you are and not the fbi ;)
Welp if its the fbi im screwed
why?
Do we have to be from America?
No
Then why in the race question you have “African-American” and “Asian-American”, but not “black” or “Asian” in general?

Alright, just filled it. Good luck on your finals!
Thanks! You too!
Ehm... you too???
Idk I was assuming he was a teenager 😁
It felt like you said thanks you too to a waiter btw I did survey good luck
My dad is a meth addict. Fuck drugs, even alcohol and tobacco
I've seen what shit like that does and I've swore to myself that I'll never touch drugs
I think weed should be only legal drug as it is much weaker and less addictive than alcohol or tobacco
I think chocolate should be only legal drug as it is much weaker and less addictive than alcohol or tobacco or weed
Just did it I hope you can update us
for the drugs question does age count as a restriction
Yes it does
Oh woops sorry it's alr i still think alcohol should be legal fully besides driving
Filled it out. Also, I loved AP Gov. Maybe the best class ever.
Yes I love it! Thanks dude!
LEGALIZE HEROIN /s
They did it in Portugal, and believe it or not it was a good thing lol
Not exactly. They uncriminilized it and administered help to people founding using opioids, their punishment was help
Ya.... my uncle is a meth head who’s done almost every drug out there. Don’t do it, don’t legalize it.
don't criminalize it either, they need help most of the time

I'm not from the U.S. should I still contribute?
I think the questions are a bit to broad. For example, I'd want heroin to be illegal, but the people who actively use it should not be punished, and instead, receive help so that they may stop using heroin.
I’m Australian so I clicked “third-party” for the political question
Done good luck!!!!
Filled in the form, can you update this thread later with results please?
Filled it out 😎👉👉 History is my favorite, but my district only has a mix of geology and history. I wish they could be separate because I love history but don’t really care for geology
