yea, you're right. My favorite war is The War On Drugs, with God's help and a few more billion we could get rid of all those pesky little bastards.

They're going about it the wrong way. Legalize the drugs, but make it illegal to dilute the drugs. Make a "drug purity law". You can sell only "100% pure" white powders.

The resulting overdoses will diminish the drug using population faster and more completely than any enforcement action can. A little Darwinism goes a long way.
