Couldnt that be done after decriminalization. Decrim will stop ruining lives and filling jails in an immediate way. People first, then economics would go a long way.
A lot of decriminalization has started with justice department changes. But honestly don't we want something that will stick and not be taken away as soon as a different party is in charge?
I think we want both immediate relief for people and systemic change for laws.
It's neat watching "Don't let the perfect be the enemy of the good" and "Politics is the art of the possible" become "I don't want to do it, so nothing is good enough."
