Wrong - if the narrowed war on drugs could be won, then it would no longer be true that its primary effect is to enrich criminals.

Red herring - whatever the INTENT, the primary EFFECT of an overly broad prohibition is to enrich criminals.

Who profits from rape, and how?

Ask people involved in sex trafficking.

The ones who commit the rapes in that context are not the ones profiting - and if consensual prostitution were legal, the market for trafficked women would be greatly reduced if not eliminated. And a great many rapes involve no profit whatsoever.

Who profits from assault and battery?
