"You forgot to include government dispensing of heroin to hordes of zombie losers wandering around in superior, more enlightened countries like Norway, Sweden, and Netherlands. Some people apparently think America should be just like those countries."

The problem with the Netherlands is not its drug policy but its welfare state policy.

Once we end the welfare state, we can end the "war on drugs".
Congratulations, everybody - - we have finally resolved the whole issue.
Ciao! See y'all on another thread sometime....
