Try bringing up decriminalization and police, politicians, help groups all have a endless argument on what should be done. And nothing gets done.
In Scandinavian countries drug abuse is seen a a social issue not a criminal issue. Best of luck getting that attitude implemented there or here.
It has been decriminalized in my state. Just distribution of controlled substance is still a crime. I can't say if it is better or worse as the last couple years have been a bit of a ride. I'd imagine not sticking people farther in a hole with fines and jail time is probably for the better, but again, too difficult to tell at the moment. I can say that the homeless issue has exploded in the last few years, but there are a lot of factors to that.
