That's the conclusion that the European Union came to with regard to the ten-year campaign against drugs by the UN. They found no real difference in the world-wide drug problem over the ten years from 1998 to 2007.
The head of the UN Commission on Narcotic Drugs acknowledged at least one change - a rise in crime. That rise has led to El Chapo, a Mexican drug lord, making #171 on the Fortune list of billionaires. Malcolm Forbes must be rolling in his grave.
How much money has been wasted on the war on drugs?
