5. anti-drug programs that work by decreasing the demand for drugs. 6. Start by funding a wide variety of different programs, and insist that every program track results. One of the frustrating aspects currently, is that a lot of money is spent on programs, year after year, and nobody has any idea which programs work, because follow-up and results-tracking are not done. 7. Steadily prune the programs that don't work, and expand the programs that do. A Darwinian competition among programs.
