Why Isn’t OxyContin a Legal Recreational Drug?
Question by The Intellectual: Why isn’t OxyContin a legal recreational drug?
People treat marijuana lightly because the statement that it’s not addictive and they say it’s safe. However, it’s been proven that smoking marijuana can cause lung cancer.
Why is OxyContin considered dangerous? Sure it’s addictive, but it can’t cause cancer – so what’s the big deal? It actually is proven to relieve pain. Sure you can overdose, but you have to consume ALOT to do that.
It’s common knowledge that OxyContin can give a euphoric high.
Why don’t they legalize OxyContin for recreational purposes, and tax it like alcohol and tobacco? It’s less dangerous than both of them.
Thanks
