The war we are losing

The hapless addict with drugs for sale
Is eventually busted and off to jail.
And those who are profit driven
Along with addicts end up in prison.
A consideration that is clearly lost.
Confining druggies is an enormous cost.

The war on drugs isn't working
Their habit, drug users aren't shirking
We lead the world with people in jail.
Is it truly because our morals fail?
Here's an idea I'd like to broach.
Let's start looking for a new approach.
