Drugs are NOT a victimless crime. Our so called 'war on drugs' was a pathetic answer from our government. Other countries have slowed it down (just ask Brittany Griner) but the US has done nothing at all. The death penalty would have to be used and used effectively. None of this 20 years in prison with endless appeals stuff. Hang dealers immediately. Lock up users for lengthy sentences. I know that sounds harsh and it would be very expensive but that's what it will take to get it done.
No, it won't work.
