- stretchwithme 8y agoI can't think of another great power I'd rather had won World War 2. Even those countries it defeated were prosperous in a couple of decades. Contrast that with how France treated Germany after World War 1 or how the Russians subjugated eastern Europe. Not to mention what would have happened if Germany had won. Still, the drug war has been a huge waste of energy. It enriches some very evil people. And actually makes these drugs much more dangerous, as potency is all over the map as a result of it being illegal.
