Many governments have laws that ban the sale and use of hard drugs such as heroin and cocaine, yet they allow people to buy drugs such as tobacco and alcohol. Laws that prohibit the sale and use of hard drugs should be applied to all drugs, including tobacco and alcohol. What is your opinion?

There are many
rules
against the use of hard
drugs
such
as heroin and cocaine in many nations. From my own perspective, I believe that the same obligations applied to prohibition and selling of hard
drugs
should be applied to all
drugs
without the exception of tobacco and liquor and
this
essay will discuss
this
notion.
To begin
with, ingestion of harmful
drugs
irrespective of their type can cause health problems to the body system. Excessive drinking of
alcohol
can lead to addiction while intake of tobacco can result in mental instability.
For instance
, a study carried out in a private hospital in China revealed that 80% of the case of mental problems were a result of drinking
alcohol
.
Thus
, in order to reduce the rate at which
people
consume
alcohol
, strict
rules
guiding hard
drugs
should be followed concerning the consumption of
alcohol
.
Furthermore
, when there is a law against
drugs
,
this
will make
people
responsible. What
this
means is that more citizens will be highly concerned about their development rather than thinking of
alcohol
.
For instance
, in India,
people
are banned from drinking
alcohol
and smoking which in turn made the majority of the residents responsible.
Thus
, it has
also
reduced crime rates. In conclusion, I equally believe
rules
guiding
people
to purchase and sell hard
drugs
should be applicable to other illegal
drugs
as well.
This
is because these
drugs
impose a danger to
people
's health.
However
, if there are strict
rules
guiding it, many individuals will be responsible and
this
in return decreases the rate at which
people
are involved in crimes. Moreso, some agencies should be employed for
this
special task. To be sincere, many things

Word Count

IELTS says that you should write a minimum of 250 words in writing task 2. If you go under word count you will lose marks in task response.

A very long essay will not give you a higher band score.

Aim for between 260 to 290 words in writing task 2. This will ensure a concise essay and will be realistic in terms of time management. You have only 40 minutes to write the essay and you need around 10 minutes of planning time, so you will not be able to write a long essay in 30 minutes.
