Prohibition is no longer affordable. And the cost/benefit was always negative.
Prohibition gives us a drug + gang problem. If we drop prohibition we will have just the drug problem to deal with. It will be cheaper.
Drugs will then be as hard for kids to get as beer. Right now beer is harder to get.
And Portugal has found that drug use declines when the stuff is legalized (decrimmed actually). By half. Why? No criminal pushers.
Prohibition has become unaffordable. It will end. The only people keeping it going are those with a financial interest in it. Like bankers.

“Do you support drug prohibition because it finances criminals at home, or because it finances terrorists abroad?”
