"We need to worry about the abuse of drugs in the same way we need to worry about the abuse of alcohol and tobacco" The war on drugs is not even remotely similar to the regulation of alcohol and tobacco. Soldiers do not invade your house because you are suspected of growing tobacco. What is needed is for the war on drugs to end, for the DEA to be disbanded, and for a system that regulates quality to be introduced. If an adult wants to buy recreational drugs, nothing should prevent them from doing so. Mixing public health and paramilitary police is far more dangerous than any drugs people might consume (my Godwin senses are tingling...).
