Earlier today, the President signed into law Joe Biden's (D-DE) legislation to make dangerous performance-enhancing drugs illegal.

Biden's Anabolic Steroid Control Act adds 18 substances to the list of banned anabolic steroids, including androstenedione (also known as "andro") and tetrahydrogestrinone (THG). Biden's measure also provides $15 million for education programs to teach kids about the dangers of steroids. It also calls for criminal penalties for those caught making, selling, or possessing these substances.

[Demondosage]

Of course he is against them, he’s an estrogen filled bitch!!!

 

[NorthMich]

Curious- he added 18 drugs to an existing list that already had most of the shit we take on it?

 

[Rido]

Thank god trestelone still isn't on there. Jk, idgaf

 

[Footfetishguy]

Seems to be no criminal penalties for his pedophile crackhead son though….

 

[Millard]

From 2008:

Joseph Biden Criminalized Anabolic Steroids with Harsher Penalties for Steroid Users

Advocates of steroid law reform are very disappointed that Democratic presidential candidate Barrack Obama selected Senator Joseph Biden as his vice

[Dr JIM]

How ironic many of the left favor Schedule I substance decriminalization, such as Meth and Heroin, in spite of the societal burden.

And for evidence of how that experiment worked out one needn't look any further than the "encampments" in Seattle WA and Portland OR

Bottom line PEDs encourage maleness, with the latter being the antithesis of a woke society.

 

[Millard]

Wouldn't it be nice if researchers would do a cost analysis of the societal burden of pro-criminalization vs. pro-decriminalization vs pro-legalization?

If they did that I’m guessing alcohol would be illegal again.

It was fun again, new underground production of alcohol and the dawn of bootlegging.

Really? You think Prohibition was the most fiscally conservative policy?

Well f#@k..... I hadn't even thought of that connection. You are 100% right. And now I have another reason to be pissed. Dammit.

Locking up more of its citizens than any other nation has made this a better country in what way?

I think the idea is not to destroy lives though the insane prosecution of most drug offenses.

 

[Big_paul]

We couldn't possibly do worse than what we have.

 

[BawlsDeep]

I think i remember a few that came out aftet portugals decriminalization of all drugs. It was an undeniable cost benefit

 

[BawlsDeep]

Joe keeping his son out of prison is literally the only thing i learned about him that i respected.

Politics and pedophilia(never heard about hunter being a pedo thought that was joe) aside, hunter seems like hed be fun as shit to party with.

You asked about if researchers would do a cost analysis of the societal burden (presumably of all drugs and substances). Alcohol causes large problems in society and is a big strain on law enforcement resources. What do cops spend every weekend and every holiday doing? Arresting drunk drivers and people battering their spouses because they are drunk. What drug besides alcohol causes more fatal crashes?

I agree alcohol is one of the worst drugs out there. You forgot its also the date rape drug of the masses.

I didn't ask whether or not alcohol consumption (or any other drug consumption) was a societal burden.

I asked about which would be the most costly approach to alcohol (drug) use: prohibition, legalization, or decriminalization.

So, my question to you is: do you think criminalizing alcohol consumption (prohibition) would alleviate the societal burden? Do you think it would save taxpayers money?

My mistake, I misunderstood you.

Probably not.

Historically in other countries we have seen decriminalizing all drugs (let’s include alcohol into this for arguments sake) lowers drug addiction rates, lowers HIV cases, lowers adolescent drug use, reduced drug overdose deaths, and lowers the burden on tax payers by not imprisoning non-violent offenders and making them go through the court system. Putting someone in a cage doesn’t treat the root problem of drug addiction. But unfortunately many prisons in the US are private (for profit) prisons and there is big money to be made imprisoning citizens. I don’t believe any other country in the world imprisons more citizens than the USA.
