DRUG PROHIBITION BY ANY NAME, SAME RESULTS

EDITOR, THE TIMES:

Sometimes I am afraid to say the numbers out loud, but it looks like 
for every $1.5 million taxpayer dollars spent on policing and every 
two weeks we produce a dead body. Since the first of the year how 
many dead bodies have we to date? Don't forget to include the dead 
drug-addicted homeless and street prostitutes that die under a bridge 
of natural causes.

It's just like a factory and a production line and a just in time 
delivery system.

Call it a self-perpetuating, money-burning people-killing machine or 
call it drug prohibition - same thing.
