'JUST SAY NO' DOESN'T WORK

David Frum thinks that people just need to stop buying drugs and the
violence associated with drug prohibition will disappear. True, as far
as it goes -- which is to say, not very far at all.

Perhaps Mr. Frum has never acquainted himself with the concept of drug
addiction. Addicts' addictions, coupled with our illogical and
wrongheaded insistence on prohibition, are what create the vast
profits and violence in the drug markets.

I would remind Mr. Frum that "Just Say No" has been around since the
mid-'80s.
