LEGALIZE, REGULATE, AND TAX

Bravo to op-ed author Garry Reed. (See "Do You Speak Thuggery or
Freedom?", River Cities' Reader Issue 666, January 9-15, 2008.)
Propaganda is propaganda, regardless whether it is used to prop up a
totalitarian regime or a totalitarian policy.

Call it a "war on drugs." Tell us it's all about the children.
Convince us you're really just doing it for our own good - to protect
us from ourselves. Dress failure after failure up as unmitigated success.

Say whatever you want. The war on drugs is still prohibition. And
prohibition still does not work.

Legalize, regulate, and tax drugs, so that we can finally control
drugs.
