>"Make no mistake, there are people who profit from this, on both sides of the war. "

That would explain Hussein and the Sinolas.

Isn't it time to declare economic warfare against the sleazy back alley immoral pushers? Take their profit motive away from them! Force them to find other means of support!

Shine the light of day on them! Bring their sales out in the open where everybody can see.

There were no drive by gang wars when any one could legally buy what they wanted at the drug store without the kings permission.

It WORKED THEN.

It is NOT working now!

There were no drive by gang wars when any one could legally buy what they wanted at the drug store without the kings permission.

It WORKED THEN.

What are you thinking "Worked" then? Free access to drugs the vast majority of people had no experience or understanding of? No, that didn't "Work", it was simply a logistical problem. Till a large enough segment of a population can produce a large enough demand to produce a large enough supply, drug addiction gets starved from lack of access.

You provide large enough access to a large enough supply of drugs, and you will find out that it doesn't "work" at all.
