    And the American Prohibition generated another “narco-state.” Don’t do what’s right or needed. No, send more money to fight an unwinnable war and cause governments to faulter. These are America’s ideals???

    Our drug policies have gotten us more enemies around the world than any other policy. And our drug policies have accomplished nothing but throwing money away.
