Well there's a pile of “settled science”. ;-)

Well, I wouldn't call this science. People are very complex that is why we seldom can reproduce results and why surveys are worthless and are not science.

Having said that, we as Conservatives need to be open to ideas. There is no perfect solution and we have to weight the pros and cons. Legalizing drugs will create as many problems as is solved.

Legalizing drugs will create as many problems as is solved.

It's doubtful quantifying "problems" can or will ever be done since there's rarely agreement on an operational definition for "problems". Some people see 'em and some don't.
