I wonder if legal drugs, unquestionably the only sane policy, are ever going to happen. People all over the world overwhelmingly and increasibly support deontological view of the law over consequentialist, ie. not banning something is interpreted as supporting it; only the signal matters, results are irrelevant. That's why marijuana is the only outlier: its use is becoming accepted.
