CORRUPTION DUE TO PROHIBITION

Prohibition of alcohol taught us that passing a law that LOTS of people ignore causes CORRUPTION EVERYWHERE. A police office takes a bottle for his birthday and gets trapped by blackmail into turning a blind eye to smuggling and illegal sales of alcohol.

There is SO MUCH ILLEGAL MONEY that there are machine gun murders on the streets of Chicago.

People DIE FROM DRINKING BATHTUB GIN, which is often poisonous rubbing alcohol.

CRIMINALS BECOME ORGANIZED, with Canadians cheerfully selling to smugglers. THE FBI SPINS OUT OF CONTROL, trying to stop the unstoppable.

WHEN ALCOHOL PROHIBITION ENDED, OTHER HITHERTO LEGAL DRUGS BECAME PROHIBITED.

Marijuana was chosen because it was used by Mexicans. Cocaine was chosen because it was trendy, and unknown to the majority of people. Opiates were chosen because it was Oriental. 

BUT MOSTLY THESE DRUGS WERE MADE ILLEGAL TO KEEP THE BLACK MARKET MONEY FLOWING.

Black market money is generally untaxable and untraceable. Criminals will happily PAY POLITICIANS to keep black market drug money flowing.

Currently, YOU CAN NOT BELIEVE ANYTHING DETRIMENTAL THAT ANYBODY SAYS ABOUT AN ILLEGAL DRUG. The politicians and PR persons who want to keep the drug money flowing will SAY ANYTHING, TELL ANY LIE, in order to keep drugs illegal.
