    With weed, what the Dutch model tries to achieve is to not punish people for smoking weed, but also not turn it into a for-profit industry that would create an incentive to get more people addicted.

    It’s more that there’s a lot of conservative parties that do not agree on the drug policy. E.g. enough Christian parties who would rather be more restrictive.
