"controlled" is key. Seattle decriminalized drug use. That's a tiny part of a larger solution rooted in harm reduction.

Singapore kills drug dealers. That works much better.

		Idk, if the number of people executed increases over time, maybe it doesn't. https://www.afr.com/world/asia/singapore-executions-touch-22... This article cites Singapore saying the existing laws mostly get low-level users and not kingpins because kingpins operate outside of the country. https://www.vice.com/en/article/singapore-drug-executions/ Decriminalization of drug use doesn't have to mean decriminalization of anything else. Thieves and murderers should be prosecuted regardless of any state induced by the voluntary ingestion chemicals.
