The actual problem with banned drugs is that they are way too expensive, not to mention they are so tricky to obtain that drug addicts must to commit crimes in order to supply their lifestyle.

How can we let people even children in third world countries die of starvation every day when all the money they need is being spent on the prevention of people getting high.
