What’s Worse the Effects of the War on Drugs or Addiction?

Question by Q K: What’s worse the effects of the War On Drugs or addiction?

The fight against terrrorism is at stake cause we stick to enforcing drug laws that are unenforceable. We need to legalize, regulate and tax them like any tobacco product is. Instead of deficits fighting drug cartels we’ll have profits to be used to educate and rehabilitate drug addicts.
