I think prohibition is a money maker for law enforcement due to asset seizure. The prisons make bank from drug laws.
AFAIK, we do not have anything like asset seizure in Germany. And the prison system over here is much less privatized / industrialized, so is not exactly a profit center.
A well-staffed, well-trained law enforcement apparatus is fairly expensive, too.
And consider that without proper treatment, widespread drug use incurs costs that do not show up on government budgets as such. Drug-related crime (theft, burglaries, etc.) comes to mind.
