Well worth a watch to see how much of a failure our drug laws are on a global scale. |  |

Define failure...
No I know what you mean, if the policy is to eradicate them, complete failure.
If the laws are actually a process to drive up price / profitability it's a complete success!
The narcotics industry is the most successful worldwide business, and has been for over 60 years, out performing the petro chemical giants, coca cola etc. It has been flexible to changing trends and tastes; weed, speed, heroin, coke, crystal meth Etc Etc etc
The problem is the profits from its success are often invested in maintaining that success i.e. Corruption of whole goverments, not just the narco states but no doubt highly placed individuals worldwide.
The pin that would burst that bubble is called legalisation. It would have a dramatic effect on street value and would create auditable tax income.
The reason I say auditable... Due to the money laundering laws world wide cash purchases over £x are reportable by law, thus laundering is key, and laundered money generates greater tax revenue than would be generated by legalised products and rich people like being rich, corrupt individuals like being rich... He'll I'd like to be rich!
Money makes the world go around, unfortunately there's a lot of laundered money out there (see HSBC) some of it, possibly, invested in U.K. property... And given current economic climate no-one would want to burst the bubble that is already deflating. |  |

I've been watching it and it just brings back to my mind the debate about legalising drugs.
Had a really good chat with Mrs H about it over the weekend. We both feel the same...legalise in a safe and appropriate manner. |  |
