The historical experience with alcohol is enough to prove that.

Apples and oranges. There are 2 totally different types of people that consume cocaine, and those that just consume alcohol. Most alcohol users simply want a slight change in mood and feeling. Types that take HARD drugs such as coke, heroin, ect want a SEVERE change in mood and feeling. Those types continually look for more and more to satisfy them.

Looks like you made my point about and the number of people doing drugs after legalization. The people who want hard drugs do them. Those people are doing them right now. Those are not interested will not do them wether they are legal or not.

Not during prohibition. people moved away from socially drinking low alcohol drinks to drinking the hard stuff. This included children. Gangs thrived, and Joe Kennedy made a fortune smuggling booze and created the wealth that keeps that family above the law to this day.
