It's time we started legalizing narcotics en masse, since half a century of fighting "the war on drugs" has made organized crime richer and stronger than anyone believed possible. Look at the cannabis industry, it's thriving yet hasn't led to a surge in medical emergencies. OTOH the states where it's been legalized have had a huge windfall in tax income which they can put to good use fighting other crime and prepping up social services.
