This article asserts that the War on Drugs, especially marijuana, is insane. The fact is that our governmental officials keep sacrificing tax dollars, lives, civil liberties and their own credibility in this misguided and losing effort. The writer makes an analogy by showing that Robert McNamara, Secretary of Defense under Kennedy and Johnson, confessed in his book that he was wrong about the war in Vietnam bring winnable and that similar confessions should be made by politicians about the War on Drugs.
