It's easy to put the terrorists and drug lords out of business: just
legalize the stuff (and in case that sounds too Libertarian, tax it and use
the money for drug education and rehabilitation! <g>).

Don't forget, you can't tax it TOO high or it won't work... people will
bootleg it.

I hear cigs in Canada are getting to that point, people smuggle them in.

I certainly agree that taxes can get outta hand and in this case, overtaxing
would defeat the point of legalizing.
