If drugs are to be legalized, I presume that means advertising of said drugs should now also be permissible. After all, those in the retail industry are allowed to publicize their wares.

In my minds eye, I see some of those 100ft billboards, similar to the "Marlboro Man" or "Burger King", with "Get Your Smack from Jack" or "For a Great Shoot Up, Go to Lenny's" dotting the landscape.

An admirable goal, which is well worth striving for. Progress, indeed.

This happens now. Drug dealers 'brand' their drugs, especially heroin, giving them names like 'spider' or 'blackjack'. The names get around, and addicts shop for the best dope.

Yeah and we can privatize highway funding by leasing said billboard space.
