WF Buckley also supports the legalization of drugs. I have to note that there are some well-reasoned arguments for the legalization, but so many of the prospects of post-legalization are daunting. Who will dispense these drugs, and where? Liquor stores? Perhaps the funds that are gained by taxing dope could also go to the rehab to try to get people unhooked? Alcohol abuse costs us plenty already...probably a lot more than tobacco. There are many new problems which would be created. How to balance?
But it can't be escaped that legalization would do what our military efforts cannot.
