Knowing that Prohibition was unsuccessful, would it be worse or better to legalize drugs so that the government could regulate and tax them? Explain.

The argument for the legalization of drugs

-efforts to restrict supply have failed

-link between illegal drugs and crime, drugs contribute to corruption

-drug law enforcement may be discriminatory

-drug enforcement may violate our constitutional rights

-there are financial and opportunity costs of drug enforcement

-health consequences of drug policies

-benefits of the legalization: net financial benefits to the government from legalization (could tax producers of the formerly illegal drugs); drugs would be safer if they were legal (regulate quality and needle exchange programs); risk premiums that stems from the illegality of drugs would disappear (drugs wouldn't be as profitable anymore)
