The Cooper Davis Act would force tech companies to report suspected drug activity to the government. Experts say it would be a disaster for digital privacy.

    There are criminals too, and gulags.

      Then how would eliminating capitalism resolve anything related to drug use?

        and that we need better solutions that address quality of life and mental health issues to keep people from turning to drugs in the first place.

          You’re almost there, one more step and you’ll realize the true enemy is capitalism.

          and that we need better solutions that address quality of life and mental health issues to keep people from turning to drugs in the first place.

          Sounds like you can’t really connect those statements, you just feel like capitalism and drugs are bad so naturally their badness must be connected.

            Most problems can be rooted back to capitalism.

              What does that mean to you in tangible terms? What do you think defines capitalism as an economic structure and how do you relate that structure to a cause of something as historical and widespread as drug use?

                Although there are a few rebels and other cool kids seeking drugs for foolish reasons, most will end up in this path as a method of running away from the injustices of society and all the hardships it provides. A communist society makes significant investments in the expansion of its education system, digital access and cultural opportunities. Illiteracy rates dropped dramatically in all communist societies, let me repeat it, dramatically.

                This is true for the Soviet Union, Cuba and even China’s slowpoke liberal-infested implementation.

                In the other hand, Capitalist societies see education and culture as nothing more than profits, a game of numbers.

                  I see, you don’t even really know what an economic structure is. You’re just having a contrarian reacting to the overwhelming greed and self-interest you see in America politics. I get it. I was child too once. Your hearts in the right place, you just need to learn what the words you use actually mean so you can better articulate your objections.

                    And you just need to learn about your rights, how to fight for them and study the many heroes in history who have allowed you to be sitting at that chair typing peacefully.

                    Start with your vote, spread the good words online, defend your candidates, maybe help in the elections, it doesn’t have to be financial support, even a single T-Shirt during elections is clear support that shapes the world towards a better future.
