It is already here, though on a lesser scale. Once this kind of thing takes root, it is nearly impossible to destroy it. Look at the result of the WOD. There must be corruption for the large amounts to reach our shores. Why are the ingredients for Meth still available over the counter? Shouldn't it require ID to purchase it, with a registry? How do drugs get into prison? Why do the lowest members of a drug ring get serious time, while the top guy gets off scot free?

Maybe it is time to de-criminalize drugs. Make it a huge crime to sell it, traffic in it, or sell to minors. Give people 25 to life for a first offense, and leave it up to the prosecutor and judge to be able to plea this out if they turn in anyone above them. IOW, take the profit out of it. Do the same with Coke and Heroin. No jail time for possession, but life for the suppliers/trafficers. Let doctors prescribe heroin to addicts under a strict registration program, and fer Gawds sake, find out where each and every shipment of Ephedrine or Pseudo-Ephedrine ends up. Actually begin to win the WOD, instead of just using it as campaign rhetoric.
