Certain drugs, yes. Crack and Heroin, for two, are quite dangerous. I just don't see the need to list certain ones as Schedule I.

Since i've moved to Las Vegas, i've learned the only thing it reallly does is cause people addicted to heorin, meth and the like to become homeless.

People will always choose the drug first.

Let people use it.

Heroin legalized would be incredibly cheap...

and it's not exactly hard to spot people on it. 

 

Doing so, they'd be able to afford their drugs and still have a place to live. 

The costs aren't actually dissuading anyone from doing it... and for the people who are hooked... it doesn't matter how much it costs.  They'll beg, borrow and steal (and worse) until they get what they need.

All the war on drugs does is punish those already hooked.
