+1. The "War on Drugs" is just as pointless as our new "War on Terror" with no clear objectives or achievable goals. All it does is cause the private and public infrastructure surrounding it to become bloated and lobby to self-perpetuate, wasting tax dollars on stupidity while racking up civilian deaths and imprisonment.
The government needs to read and fully comprehend what happened during the Prohibition and the organized crime rings that popped up because of it.
