DRUG WAR STRATEGIES
It should come as no surprise that "Drug War Fails to Dent U.S.
Supply" (June 28). After wasting $5.4 billion since 2000, let's
finally admit that the strategy we are using to combat drug use is
not going to work. And it is time we got smart and tried a different
strategy: Let's just use the dollars allocated to the drug war to
better educate kids why drugs are wrong and bad for them.
