We've been fighting the war on drugs since Nixon, and have wasted hundreds of billions of dollars that could have actually accomplished something. We have made some serious creeps very wealthy into the mix. Total failed policy.

For 10% of the money we spend on enforcement and interdiction, we could offer high level treatment to all that require it. If drugs were freely available, we woudl also eliminate a tremendous amount of theft.

Sure, there will always be druggies, but it's always cheaper to sweep out the gutters than it is to fight a war. I am tired of paying for failed policy.
