Mary Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 Just to add - I am sure it has to do with the fact that the legal drugs the governments make good money on - but they don't on the illegal ones?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
observer Posted February 6, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 6, 2008 But if they legalised all drugs, they could tax them too, and make loads of dosh! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
little fella Posted February 7, 2008 Report Share Posted February 7, 2008 Maybe they should over tax tobacco and alcohol to the extent that the cost of alcohol and tobacco related crime and medical treatment is covered by the tax? ?5 pint, fags at ?1 each. That will do for a starting point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
