I personally believe that this idea is hilarious.
An attempt to change the horrid, racist, policy known as the "War on Drugs" is hilarious?
Any alternative would be preferable to the current federal scenario, so I'm willing to support the proposal on that basis alone. All recreational drugs should be legalized, and funding should be directed towards rehabilitation programs available and free of charge for those who need it. We also should be funding comprehensive drug education, as opposed to the nonsense currently peddled by DARE. The biggest problem with the proposal is that it funds otherwise good programs regressively. Sin taxes are terribly regressive, take advantage of those with addictions, and are a poor excuse for not taxing the rich that ought to be abolished.
