"End ALL welfare, ALL taxpayer-funded medical care, and ALL tax-payer-funded substance abuse treatment programs, and revise the laws across the land to hold people fully responsible for any act they commit while under the influence of self-administered drugs (including alcohol), and THEN we can talk about ending the "war on drugs".

Works for me. Don't believe in any prohibitions OR subsidies. End welfare but end the damn drug war, too; anybody who cares what I do or don't put in my body is a damn fascist who should be shot. But if anybody wants the rights of a human being then they are responsible for their actions- period.

You can't end welfare/support for those that are extremely handicapped physically or mentally.

I do think welfare should be VERY temporary and never allowed to go past a few months unless there is a person recovering from a massive injury.

You don't stop going after illegal drugs or the abuse of alcohol because you would grow troubles.
We should never repeat what Brittan did in banning guns to citizens either.

You don't believe in prohibitions and I don't believe in idiots abusing drugs, performing crimes and costing society all kinds of social problems. So when you can stop all the recreational drug use, we then have no need for the law to go after them and we can all be happy. :-)
