If you’re suggesting that this prohibition has done anything useful, I’d like to know what it is.
The last time around, prohibiton led to higher prices and crime by users to pay the price, black market sales of tainted products, organized crime, massive government corruption, gang murders by the score, gun bans, and a massive assault on the individual’s ability to transfer money.
This time around, it’s led to higher prices and crime by users to pay the price, black market sales of tainted products, organized crime, massive government corruption, gang murders by the score, gun bans, and a massive assault on the individual’s ability to transfer money. And of course, this time we’ve also got the rehab industry.
But sooner or later, someone is going to get it right.

Not to be argumentative, but they’ve already got it right!
What you view as faults are actually features - the system works.
It just has different goals than you might at first imagine.
Sounds like your operating under the assumption that "get(ting) it right" is one of the government's goals. I've yet to see any indication of that.
