Who cares about Portugal? It's almost as much of a non-country as Belgium.

Ireland's intending to do the same thing soon. Except without the min. wage, or healthcare improvements regarding drug addiction (at least, from what I've heard of it. Ireland may already have that in place).

We'll see what happens there and truely know if Portugal's approach towards drugs applies elsewhere.

Won't stop injectors down O'Connell street in Dublin though.

Reminds me a little bit of various discussions had in the past. That rather interesting point to be made. If all drugs were suddenly legalized, would the people who already abstain from them just up and start using them?

I doubt it. Clearly, the actual legal laws don't stop people from using drugs, so much as they stem the flow of them somewhat.

We shouldn't follow other people's example

People are so different from people, almost like a completely different species.
