Lord Porpington, you're ignoring the implications of legalised drugs on other areas of society. It's nowhere near as simple as you're making it out to be.

I'm not claiming to be an expert on the situation, but as far as I see it, from the research that I've done, people who want illegal drugs are getting them, and the billions spent trying to keep it off the streets has done nothing to stop it. The amount of drug users is increasing, and police time is being wasted putting people in prison simply for being high.

Maybe there are some drugs that are just too dangerous for release, such as Heroin, but Marijuana, LSD, Esctacy, and many others are just not worth keeping illegal.
