"America today has 22.5% of the worlds prisoners. But, after all that time, after all the destroyed lives and after all the wasted resources, prohibited drugs today are cheaper, stronger, and easier to get than they were thirty-five years ago at the beginning of the so-called "war on drugs".


Nonsense...The stats are distorted because certain Asian and Arab countries execute drug dealers. We keep them alive to be released and deal again.

Wrong. Indonesia executes more drug dealers than any other country on the planet. They average three per year. The arab countries execute more people for alcohol than drugs and Iran executes more people for fornication than drugs.
