21. federal level change is impractical

but I think you see, now, once people have had propaganda debunked, federal level pols will concede that their long war on drugs is a failure.

one Supreme Court Justice called states "laboratories of democracies." States can make laws and see how this works - and this is what has happened.

If federal prohibition were based on anything other than prejudice, political enemies lists of Nixon, and racism, I might care about the issue of state v federal. but they're not.

we've all had plenty of time to see how little reality matters when money is to be made in politics.

those states who have hitched their wagons to for-profit prisons will hopefully soon see the error of their ways as well.
