This is so simple, I am amazed no one has thought of it sooner

Just stop using for one year. Just say no.

Think of the drug lords of Columbia, Afganistan, etc that would be put out of business.

The funds from the federal government would quickly get diverted elsewhere.

Then, after the Feds have been asleep for a while , BONGO, your right back at it!

Sounds good to me. But let's see if the 'cold sweat unless I smoke in the next 5 minutes' libertine crowd will agree with you...

[Huck]

cold sweat unless I smoke

Who said anything about cigarettes?

[L,TOWM]

What is Jeremiah Weed? Is it anything like Sensimillan? I've been out of the looped for a few years now...

[Huck]

Jeremiah Weed.

Nice description. Reminds of a Wolfe book that got slaughtered by H-wood.

BTW, check your freepmail later. Baseball related.

And let's not forget, just saying no doesn't cost the taxpayers a dime.

[BossyRoofer]

If the drug useing public only knew how easy it is to contaminate the supply before it gets to the USA it might help to say no a little sooner! The terrorist already have a consumeing target base. It's as simple as that and potentialy more deadly than a nuclear attack!

[dalereed]

Just execute anyone caught with drugs ONE THE SPOT, NO TRIAL!

If it became law, I have a cousin that I would hope would be the first caught and shot on site!

Actually, it would be easier to end it, and you wouldn't need to convince the thousands of druggies to stop using either.

All you have to do is get the federal government to put out a drug, that looks, tastes and feels like the real illegal drugs. This drug would paralyze the user, and there is no antidote. Imagine the chaos of the illegal drug trade in trying to detect this type of drug. The druggies would be either dead or paralyzed or scared to use drugs because it could be the paralyzing drug.

But I don't see this happening. The drug dealers are too dependent on the money the drug trade brings. The federal government are too dependent on the money the war on drugs program brings. And the taxpayers are, as usual, the ones holding the empty baggies.

hehehe... empty baggies.... hehehe
