I think you mean "not as good as it could be" rather than "deeply flawed". They're leading the world in getting to a stage where all drugs could be legalised.

I think you mean "not as good as it could be" rather than "deeply flawed". They're leading the world in getting to a stage where all drugs could be legalised. The Portuguese doctor Goulão who leads most of the drug panels does want to legalise all drugs. He makes the argument that all drugs should be legalised not just baby steps of cannabis, so he definitely agrees with you. What Portugal has achieved is amazing because they also had very conservative governments and yet still got as far as decriminalisation.
