Issue 715 Narc Pharmacy November 5, 2015

In order to facilitate legalized narcotics like Crack and other illegal substances, a special dispensary will be needed.  These pharmacies for our purposes, in describing what they would need to do, will be called Narc Pharmacies.  Let us begin.

Narc Pharmacy:  This type of pharmacy will be the sole distributer of all illegal highly addictive drugs that are made legal.  This mean opium, cocaine, heroin and their variants and counterparts.  These will all be taxed by States with respect to sales taxes and will not need a prescription.  This will ensure that addicts will have access to the drugs they need at any given time (so behavior can be monitored unobstructed) and that States will be able to collect the revenue and taxes to keep these pharmacies running.  However, you must be over the age of 18 with a legal State authorized identification to buy.  Those under age 18 will be required to have a special note from a doctor that authorizes them to buy as it will show they are addicted (we do not need new addicts being created for obvious reasons, especially children).  While allowing the State to garner revenue from these drugs sales, it will remove the money going to drug dealers entirely for addicts will now have access to clean needles and none tainted/contaminated drugs.  Most importantly however, this will allow people to accurately study addiction by bringing it out of the shadows.  This works only if the individual addicts are restricted in where they can use the drugs, in this case the Narc Pharmacy.  In this case there will be a lounge area, or similar where these individuals may relax and use their drugs of choice and an emergency room or two to treat anyone who overdoses.  As such, doctors and nurses will be on staff that specialize in treating addicts.  

A Narc pharmacy is designed to be a safe place for these individuals to use drugs and prevent young children from seeing adults taking the drugs or being compelled to try the drugs by an adult.  Also, the exact amounts distributed to each patient, and the quality of the drugs can be monitored to ensure that addicts have a reduced risk of overdose, do not get bad batches or take drugs that negatively impact one another.  In other words, it makes taking addictive drugs as safe as humanly possible.  We literally can identify the most popular drugs, identify which sex, age, gender and so on prefer which drug, all to better understand addiction.  Once this is done, we can then determine the actual number of addicted people in an area, and then provide treatments for those who want them.  Remember, we are not operating on the assumption that we people around addicts can force an addict to go clean.  The assumption we are operating on (based on interviews I have seen that featured alcoholics and addicts in general) is that these people have to want to get clean, and that many will need to hit their "bottom" in order for that to be achieved.  So these narc pharmacies can also provide such services for becoming addiction free as well by helping patients wean themselves off the drugs, or switch from one drug to the next slowly till they are finally clean.  The narc pharmacy can even provide services if needed for those who want to try quitting cold turkey.  Other drugs that are legal or partially legal like marijuana, oxycodone, hydrocodone, codeine and sleeping pills may also be able to be dispensed as well as they are addictive as well.  Psychologists that specialize in grief and other reasons for people taking up drugs can also be added for we can operate under the assumption that these people take up these drugs to cover up some sort of emotional pain, or are seeking a pleasure that they at the moment can only achieve through drug use.


Conclusion:  This idea is based on what is already being done in Canada and some European countries, with those drugs being almost 100% legal.  By providing this structure we can even reduce gang related crimes as gangs that sold these drugs will lose almost all their revenue and thus their reasons for existing.  Why have a gang that sells drugs when you can just go to the narc pharmacy and not risk getting shot, raped or robbed.  This means less crime and people who are addicted will not see jail time anymore and finally receive real treatments for their addiction in a stress free environment.  So let us bring drug use into the light so we can see how to really help these people.
