The article is in favor of making consumption legal (as in Portugal). However, the Portugese model (which has had some success) also depends on not making drugs like fentanyl and heroin commercializable. This is really what the article means by "making drugs illegal". Which is somewhat deceptive, but I do think that is the argument actually made in the article. Given the massive misrepresentation of Oxycontin as a drug effective at treating pain for 12-24 hours with a single pill which has caused so much addiction: http://www.latimes.com/projects/oxycontin-part1/ http://www.latimes.com/projects/oxycontin-part1/ Do you not see some issues with giving these companies which have already successfully deceived the public another set of dangerous products like Fentanyl and Heroin?
