Opinion essay - Soraya Salarich

Nowadays many people consume alcohol and tobacco, these drugs are legal thanks to the government but there are many others that are not. What is the difference between those who want to facilitate us to obtain those who do not? If both are bad for people's health.

Personally, I believe that the problem is not in legalizing or illegalizing a substance, since everyone is aware of what he does and stops doing and if a person wants to use a drug even knowing that it is not good for his body, it is his business.

In addition, the fact of illegalizing and banning drugs such as alcohol and tobacco would be of no use since it would create even more dependence on people, since when we all have something within our reach we do not worry about it, but instead, when we know that We don't have it when we want it most.

So I believe that illegalizing alcohol, tobacco and other substances, the only thing I would do would be for people to consume it more

In conclusion, I believe that the problem is not in illegalizing or legalizing a substance, but in that people once consume it cannot stop doing so and also harm not only their health but also that of the people around them.
