A Failed Prohibition Policy

I have dealt a lot of marijuana the last 20 years. I consider this act no different than bartending, except that it is under Prohibition Laws. Which means I can charge a premium price. Did we not learn anything from our failed Prohibition Policy with alcohol?

It just does not make sense, as American RadioWorks points out. What are the government's reasons? Political violence in our southern neighbors territory? That's about the only reason this makes sense.

The only thing I've noticed in the last 20 years is that the War on Drugs is getting more and more ridiculous and clearly does not have the support of the majority of Americans.
