Having worked in law enforcement I can tell you most of the people in jail are there for something related to substance abuse. Even if their crime isn't possession or something like that alot of the theft or violent person on person crimes have some relation to drug or other substance usage. There is a big problem in our country when we are filling and having to build new prisons to incarcerate drug offenders at the rate we are.
Its simple economics if you suppress supply, cost will go up. The more governments bust traffickers the more cost goes up, the more cost goes up the more people will resort to violence and theft. It's a downward spiral.
Saturn, why aren't you in law enforcement anymore?
