No. We should devote more resources to drug rehabilitation and drug abuse prevention education, and less to hunting down dealers/users. If we give poor kids a shot at a decent education and a chance at a decent job, they might be less likely to use or deal drugs. If we can remove the stigma from mental illness and make mental health care more widely available at an affordable price, we might decrease the number of people who use legal and illegal drugs to self-medicate.
