And how about facts? Do the facts support your notion? Look at
Americans: you cannot go tougher than they did. One gram of anything
will get you 30 years in jail. They jailed more than 2 million people.
Did they win war on drugs? Even they don't claim it.

And now about taxpayers money. It costs about $70,000 per year of
taxpayers money to keep each prisoner in jail. It costs close to
nothing to give this prisoner as much drugs as he wants and leave him
alone. 

Now, what is the best way to use taxpayers money?
