I say, legalise all drugs, produce them locally, tax them and put health warnings on the packaging.

This way you would generate income from all the druggies. Thus you could cut income tax with the money saved.
Drug dealers would go out of business.
Crime would decrease.

Prohibition clearly doesn't work. If people want to ruin their lives on drugs, let them, but make money out of it in the process.

Prohibition never works.  Repeal prohibition.

Agree. The current attitude towards drugs in the west is just ridiculous. Whether they're illegal or not, people will still take them, so why not legalise them and earn some tax revenue from it? It would also take criminals out of the loop.
Sure the problems with drug addiction would still be there, but that's going to exist anyway.
