No my reasoning is flawless, as usual.Of course it is a total failure. All these so called wars by big unlimited government, are failures. They are purposely designed to fail in perpetuity...so that government can continue to grow in power and wealth.The Feds will not go along with this.
The War on Drugs is a total failure
The war on drugs is a total disaster.
People who use drugs are a total disaster.
Self righteous and judgmental; it's a common conservative malady.
It is a failure, but your reasoning is flawed by your biases. You hate government, and in general, the law. In general because laws that restrict others you support, but laws which restrict you, you oppose.
Two of the most dangerous drugs, tobacco & alcohol, are legal and regulated. When alcohol was made commercially illegal by prohibition, it created a massive black market; in economic terms it created a cost deficit owing to the loss of taxes and cost of enforcement.
It is well past time to re evaluate our drug laws. Sadly Atty. General Jeff Sessions maybe the worst person on earth to do so. I suppose leaders of the drug cartels might be worse.
Government's number one purpose is to grow in power and wealth. Keeping drugs illegal is but one avenue allowing for this.
We even had a POTUS who purposely purchased firearms in the USA and gave them to the drug cartels. Now that is big government at it's best.
