U.S. federal, state and local governments have spent hundreds of billions of dollars trying to make America “drug-free.” Yet heroin, cocaine, [methamphetamine] and other illicit drugs are cheaper, purer and easier to get than ever before. Nearly half a million people are behind bars on nonviolent drug charges - more than all of western Europe (with a bigger population) incarcerates for all [violent] AND nonviolent offenses. The war on drugs has become a war on families, a war on public health and a war on our [constitutional] rights. Many of the problems the drug war purports to resolve are in fact caused by the drug war itself. So-called “drug-related” crime is a direct result of drug prohibition's distortion of immutable laws of supply and demand. Public health problems like HIV and [Hepatitis C] are all exacerbated by zero tolerance laws that restrict access to clean needles. The drug war is not the promoter of family values that some would have us believe. Children of inmates are at risk of educational failure, joblessness, addiction and delinquency. Drug abuse is bad, but the drug war is worse.
