The reason about pot is tax money same with alcohol and other taxes. I think our state will be the highest-taxed state in us next year for fuel (Washington State) I don't buy the being weak part, some folks think that pleasure is a sin and I don't buy that either. Some believe that we should suffer in life and I don't see the balance there. Most people try to do the right thing but those who lose hope often become addicted to substances and other diversions. We have marginal health care in this country and almost nonexistent mental health care and that is a shame and shame on us as a nation. From what I've read cocaine is the rich person's choice of drugs while I've read that meth and fentanyl are for the common folks. For most of us we choose not to indulge, work, love, and someday are thankful we can retire. Some say it's the government that should take care of the people and some say the church yet I think as a nation as a whole we need to demand that we are helped where we need help. When we see all of us as a family that we are responsible for not just individuals or groups of individuals then things will change for the better. When it comes down to it, it's about the money or lack of it, and HOW we spend it. Sorry about the soap box, division and diversion have become a way of life in the US, and its not pretty.

There are enough markets that crave cocaine that these guys can always find buyers for the product. It would be great if we could blast them out of the water, but that much cocaine will produce other problems if it all went into the ocean. I'm all for capturing the crews, but the drugs need to go to the incinerator. We also know where the coca plants are and could spray and kill the plants. Unfortunately, too many people would be injured, or killed, to make that possible.
