Opinion essay - LAURA PEÑA


In a world where the majority of the civic consume alcohol and tobacco, the issue of whether this drugs’ consumption should be banished or not is still up to debate. Although they are not considered that harmful, I strongly believe they should be made illegal.

On one hand, I personally don’t understand why they are not considered as harmful as to make them illegal. They might seem to be harmless and to be different from other drugs, but at the end, they are drugs which means they create addiction and their consumption has damaging health consequences. We just think it is okay to consume them because the society has accepted them as they are legal and refuse to see that this does not make them harmless. Furthermore, I strongly believe that they are legal because their industry makes lots of money, we are not aware of how much money we spend on them while we could be saving up or spending them on necessary things.

On the other hand, it is veridic that we can consume them with responsibility so that we do not create an addiction and they do not harm that much our health. However, few people know how to do it and we nowadays see a lot of teenagers almost unconscious because of the alcohol and a lot of addicts to it and to tobacco.

To sum up, they may be the less harmful drugs but at the end they are similar to the illegal ones. Consequently, in my view they should be illegal.
