"Should drug use be criminalized?"

Drug use is not illegal. Drug possession is.

"Or should we go for putting 20% of the population in prison?"

Those 20% are in prison because of drug dealing, not using.

"Dealing" is defined by quantity, not actual evidence of dealing.

The Drug War makes "the meaning of 'is'" look simple.
