Hi VV, good to see you back on board. I hope FL warmed up for you?

Thanks for this thread. The reefer madness article is outstanding.

I have excerpted the money quote below:


"Much of the behavior that packs Wisconsin 's prisons is rooted in drug and alcohol abuse, " the report states. "As one judge put it, Drugs drive all our crime, the whole caseload. The economics of the whole criminal justice system here is driven by addiction. ' " Overall, $43 million in annual savings would result from providing treatment in lieu of incarceration, the report concludes."


The criminal justice system is itself, addicted to the unconstitutional war on drugs.
