The war on piracy is just the result of intense lobbying and lack of understanding at the top. It's a transitional state until we adjust copyrights for the digital age. I'm not sure we have the same level of lobbying for the war on drugs. I don't want to start a heated debate about the war on drugs, or drug usage (which is a too frequent topic to my taste on hn), but I think we can agree that pirating doesn't have the same obvious negative effects than certain drugs (legal or not legal, that's not the point): inability to drive, violence, health problems, loss of productivity... That is why I don't think it's a good comparison.
