Agree

No, but increase funding for addiction prevention and rehabilitation

By investing in prevention and rehabilitation, the government could potentially reduce long-term costs associated with drug addiction, such as healthcare and criminal justice expenses. Therefore, the score is moderately positive.

Agree

Yes, and retroactively reduce sentences for those already serving time

Retroactively reducing sentences for those already serving time for drug offenses aligns with the fiscal responsibility ideology's goal of reducing government spending. This could lead to lower incarceration costs and a more efficient use of resources. However, as mentioned earlier, fiscal responsibility does not inherently support or oppose drug decriminalization, so the score is moderately positive.

Neutral

No, but decriminalize drugs that offer medicinal benefits such as marijuana
