ALL drugs? I think that might be a bit of a stretch. Legalizing marijuana would probably be a good idea. Most pot smokers are pretty harmless... They're lethargic. They're amusing to watch while they stand transfixed in front of the candy rack in the 7-11 at 3:00 in the morning. They're less competition for my kids.

Now, heroin addicts, for example, are a different story. They steal. They're unsightly. They spread disease (albeit mostly to other heroin addicts), and curing them is very expensive. Heroin addicts should be shot on sight.

Well... we won't exactly eliminate them. We'd just allow them to join the ranks of respectable business: Seagrams, Anheuser-Busch, R.J. Reynolds, et. al. Plenty o' loot to be made as a purveyor of recreational pharmaceuticals, you know.
