> You know what other business model doesn't work if we enforce laws mandating anti-drug morality? Drug dealing. Pedantically, the drug dealing business model definitely still definitely works, even if anti drug laws are enforced. It just gets more expensive, risky, and often has to pick up either organized crime backing (e.g. gangs and liquor in prohibition, or gangs and cocaine/crack/h during the height of the war on drugs) or government backing (not in an IranContra sense, rather lobbying to make your drug legal, so long as the government gets a cut - e.g. liquor or marijuana).
