so I'm sure the heartless bastards would leave them alone. Prison is the drug treatment plan of choice for poor people and that is unlikely to change, vagrancy taking the place of possession charges.
Taxes on drugs would continue to be popular, increasing over the years until a critical level were reached, one that would make them so expensive the black market would start up again. Remember, taxes on somebody else's sin are always popular.
Little would really change except kids would find drugs a little harder to get hold of than they do now. Lower prices and higher quality in the beginning would remove drugs as a source of revenue for gangs, both here and outside the country and if that's all the good that happens, that's great.
Still, it's hard to see how it will be accomplished while we have a corrupt oligarchy who are determined to keep the drug war going as a pretext to kill civil rights and control the population in fascist hell.
