Decriminilize and legalize it. Tax it similar to cigarettes, and keep the billions of dollars that each year go to the countries that are supplying and taking the $$ back to their countries. Think of the millions of dollars that would be saved in law enforcement, not to mention how it would benefit the overcrowding problem in our prisons from repeat offenders. We have been battling the drug war for decades and haven't put a dent in it, in fact losing it.
Maybe take some of this money and use it for something like... Gee I don't know... maybe some help and services for some of our wounded men and women in the Armed Services?!!
The war on drugs will never be stopped and it's time that this country wakes up to that fact, and realize that it its working against itself, and with proper laws and federal control, could turn this into billions of dollars for programs that will benefit everyone. Legalization will happen, it's just a matter of how much more time we waste.
