How's That War on Drugs Going?

The green line shows what we're spending, per capita, on the war on drugs.  The blue line shows the drug use, per capita, over the same period.  Chart is by Matt Groff.



What a stunning success!

Yes, that was tongue-in-cheek.  Sure wish we hadn't wasted those billions of dollars...
