Replying to @amanda_fawkes @chesaboudin
More that jail isn't really a effective disincentive when choosing not to deal has so much more significant consequences. Jail isn't a harsh sentence, and doesn't disincentivize anything compared with threats of families death in their home country.

Legalizing would lead to less violent crime. "“Decriminalizing drugs is even more urgent now than in 1972, .. Postponing decriminalization will only make matters worse, and make the problem appear even more intractable.” --Milton Friedman, 1989, https://www.econ.berkeley.edu/sites/default/files/yablon_daniel.pdf …

It's not de facto legalization here. Opiate users have existed in our society for thousands of years, when we do not arrest them, they build dens off the street, and are generally not a problem. It's where we use violence on them, like here, that we get the dystopia.

There's even plenty of music and media that describe the problem. Through prohibition we make production and sale of the products more profitable, and to increase market share the black market compensates music to promote lawlessness and drug usage.https://youtu.be/30CDHuiRCrc
