[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a new state, dc would legalize prostitution[b]tax an existing unregulated business, improves wages and provides health and safety for all involved[/b], decriminalize drugs[b]like all the other states are doing now, can tax it and have the money go to addressing the opiod issue[/b], promote restorative justice over incarceration[b] because locking a 17 year old up with no chance for education or rehab for the next 50 years is costly, more costly than sending a kid to harvard[/b] and generally reform policing to be more lenient (which would exacerbate crime[b] not necessarily, cite?[/b]), and raise taxes[b] DC has a AAA bond rating and a massive budget surplus and emergency fund, much greater than most states - we do just fine managing our affairs, thank you[/b]. It would be another Portland, except one half of the citizens would be poor.[b]most people who have visited LOVE Portland, thanks for making the point[/b][/quote][/quote]
