They already sell it. It's just behind the pharmacy counter.

Heroin is just opium, just like morphine, oxycodone, etc.

Methamphetamine is sold as adderal, and closely related forms as ritalin, etc.

Grocerie stores already sell many many things with no age restriction that can kill you in seconds. Half the cleaning aisle for a start.

May I invite you over to Medellin (a huge digital nomad spot right now) where you can get anything very cheaply yet society hasn't collapsed, in fact it has improved recently?

If you spent 5 seconds looking at statistics about crime, cartels and drug use in Medellin vs cities in the US, you'd see that quality of life is significantly worse in Medellin.

What do children have to do with this?

[lakpan]

What kind of question is this? If drugs are sold without limits, then children will also be affected.

The right answer is that they would still need to be controlled just like cigarettes and alcohol.

Who do you think goes in these grocery stores?
