Citizens Against Government Waste (CAGW) recently released a report entitled “Wasted in the War on Drugs” that shows evidence of tremendous waste and incompetence in the American government’s drug enforcement policies and practices.

Including among these wasteful practices is the prosecution of medicinal marijuana users in states in which medicinal marijuana is legal, and the repeated investment in the counterproductive National Youth Anti-Drug Media Campaign, despite detailed government reports testifying to its failure. The CAGW suggests that these sorts of nonsensical practices are indicative of the government’s absurd prioritizing of attacking marjiuana usage while the usage of methamphetamine and cocaine continues to rise.
