1) I wouldn’t be surprised that if, at the end of the day, we find out that the stats cited here weren’t quite as good as they first appeared to be.

and,

2) The issues at hand wouldn’t affect other drug prices, so it is likely that some of the cocaine users will simply switch to other products.

I can’t say I am a drug expert, but is it somehow possible that they are cherry picking the evidence? Unlikely, I’m sure, but possible nonetheless. Have the prices and availability for the hundreds of other illegal drugs also changed, or do we not care?

Which war can we win first: the one on drugs or the one on terror?

Drugs are nearly limitless in their supply while “terror” is an abstract psychological condition.

Im not sure where I’d put my money…
