people who WANT drugs get drugs,
They do a LOT of crime to raise the cash to buy it, but if you want it, you WILL find someone to sell it to you.
We have ridiculously tough laws on the books,
but that HAS NOT stopped drug use,
we spend MILLIONS fighting it,
and it hasn't stopped,
I don't think by making some drugs legal,
it will turn people into junkies,
but by selling it, taxing it, and spending a little cash on rehab and demand side policy, I think we would do more to curb drug use, and cut into the profits of crime.
