eer.... your 'evidance' doesnt show the %,
you dont even state the benefits you claim to be having by copying the netherlands. The USA economy and the UKs econmoy are higher than the Netherlands, what benefits from what country? you may feel safer from crime in certain states BECUASE AMERICA IS A BIGGER COUNTRY THAN A VIRTUAL ISLAND THE THE NETHERLANDS IS. i just keep repeating my self... America has a far more liberal minded culture (DESPITE THE DIVERSE STATES), there is far more less racism (take note), far less technological advancement, and far less suicide rate per %, far more athletical (do you want stats on the olympics) would you think cannabis would improve the economy of the USA and the UK, so much so as like the netherlands |

Try "READING" all of the information, where it explains these are statistics per 100,000 of the population (standard measurement). The Netherlands suicide rate is 19.3 (combined) per 100,000, US is 21.7, UK is 15.2. So the US is the HIGHEST! ![]() I did give you benefits, you just haven't listened. Less people sent to prison for small amounts of cannabis caused by relaxing the laws on possesion frees up our over crowded prison system. And yes, I would feel safer in the UK or netherlands as proven by our much lower homicide rates as a percentage and the fact handguns are illegal. Your 'island' comment is irrelevant. Suicide rate is higher in the US. The link I posted is from 'WHO' (World Health Organisation) and the authority on statistics such as these. Also, your 'liberal' comment is opinion. I believe the netherlands is more liberal than the US. Evidence shows your arguments are false so you are just wasting my time... |

When you say you want it to be more like "The netherlands, Belgium etc" you didnt state what all those countries such as belgium, holland and etc have in common, apart from the fact that they all have less foriegners.
is that what you meant you want your country to be like ... like holland, belguum and etc (similar countries) you know like those countries who have the highest suicide rate in the world? |

Ok, I'll make it really simple then. I prefer the Netherlands to the US. I don't want the UK to be more like the US.
Also, you were wrong about suicide rates and drug abuse and the evidence is in the links I have given. ![]() |

For those who haven't been to America and have only seen what its like on TV, its good but nothing to write home about. Its not as good as its made out to be and I still prefer places like Spain and Portugal.

and by the look in your face i think my assumption of "people have more fun in london (more foriengers) than in sheffield" seems to be more truer
etc. USA > UK > HOLLAND > LITHUINIA |

I think the USA is our closest ally for a number of obvious reasons, and to be honest, without that strong relationship we'd be in a much less politically stable environment. I don't think, however, that we're played like pawns by the US, and it's just a symbol of our political strengths that we agree on almost everything

I genuinly cannot believe you followed 3 pages to make a remark, geeez you must hate the fact Cannabis is illegal
![]() Bottom line of my argument (which he seems to be against) he wants policies that holland, belgium and etc have? he NEVER stated what those policies THOSE countries have that he wants. after that he speculated that the UK would be a better place if Cannabis & Prostitution was legalised in the UK... i was getting at the fact that our economies would fall as low as THE NETHERLANDS ... or are you now gonna critisize the social atmosphere on this debate, or maybe grammer, or maybe something , oooo knows.. |

I dont just judge whether a country is worth living in or not based on its economy. Did you know Ireland consistently tops life satisfaction surveys and that is a far smaller economy than the US? Also Netherlands economy might be lower but its GDP per capita is the same and this is more important. And you are kinda just repeating yourself over and over and not really listening. Im starting to think you arent worth bothering with |
