U.S. domestic drug policy does not carry out its stated goals, and policymakers are well aware of that. If it isn’t about reducing substance abuse, what is it about?

People who have addictive problems usually have some subset of emotional difficulties that causes them to abuse substances. (Abuse Quotes)

Time and talents are the most expensive gifts God gave to us at no cost. However, they are the main things that are easily abused. To abuse something time and talents is to take them for granted and not appreciate their values. (Abuse Quotes)
