I don't know if I was trying to make a point as much as just stating a personal observation. I see the war on drugs as a major waste of time, effort, and taxpayer's money; i.e., a boondoggle.

I fear that the "war on terror" could very easily suffer the same fate if we don't get back on track and refocus our priorities.

Speaking of drugs and terrorists, ironically our displacement of the Taliban has allowed the Afghan natives to begin anew the production of poppy plants for herion. Sheesh, you make strides in one war and create setbacks in another.
