It’s time we be honest with each other: drugs won the U.S. War on Drugs.
While President Trump is inexplicably still contesting the election results, there isn’t even a shadow of a doubt on the fact that drugs are a sure winner of the 2020 elections.
During the 1960âs, âHippiesâ and celebrities popularized the use of marijuana, LSD, and other drugs. “During the Civil War, troops used morphine, uppers dominated World War II, the Vietnam troops shot heroin”, and their addictions didn’t stop there, as the U.S.’ demand for drugs kept on growing.
The term âWar on Drugsâ was coined in the summer of 1971 after Ronald Reagan ordered law-enforcement officials to directly target drug consumers rather than producers or suppliers.
