or revisit the penalties for getting caught with drugs.
We have done that many times. And the penalties kept going up. What you see now is the result. It's been amazingly successful, hasn't it?

Here in CA you get caught with a hard drug 3 times, it's 25 to life. It's been a great deterrent, hasn't it? Half our prison cells are occupied by non-violent druggies. At $A60K a year per.

ps mentioned the thought of legal drugs to a bunch of addicts last night.. Horror on their face.
At what? The crimes they had to commit to pay the illegality premium? Or the people that getting them to them?
