Very dumb idea. The Netherlands tried this and as a kid commuting to school by rail I found all kinds of junks doing heroin in front of me. Of course the commuter town I lived in got lots of enrichment by said junks doing home invasions and strangulation of helpless stay at home wives.
WTF do you think will happen once weed is nothing but the first step, hard drugs really get into all those high schools, and anybody you run into could be self-medicating her or himself with a cheap cocktail of drugs. Oh wait, that’s Russia today.
That 18th amendment can be re-enacted and expanded, Mexico can be invaded up to 100 miles deep and seeded with trillions of bouncing Bettys, and shoot to kill would finally end that trafficking across the gulf. Or across the pacific. Just like we did with Somali pirates. Or Mexico in the past.
I’m in favor of holding show trials for all those bleeding heart doctors that convinced weed would be used for kids with terminal cancer, and be better than morphine. Yeah, morphine worked really well for my late son, fuck weed.
The war on drugs would have worked better if we’d actually destroyed the supply AND treated the addicts. But that costs real money.
Cocaine in liquid form is incredibly useful - to numb up your nose and sinuses prior to surgery, and that’s about it. Meth just needs to be wiped off the planet, and fentanyl should warrant air strikes with napalm. Heroin, well the Taliban can eradicate that overnight. They’ve done it before. China... well those container ships just seem to shipwreck themselves when the welds fail...you guys really should stop cutting corners on welding .. or was it a torpedo.. hmm. I guess we’ll never know.
How ruthless will this get? Nothing the Brits haven’t done dozens of times.
USA has not won a single war since WW2. Over past forty years it has lost almost all important industrial capability. My point is that this is not the USA of 1940s-1960s. Right now it is coasting along largely on system inertia, while doing everything to upset it.
Europe is in an even worse place. While they have better looking buildings and fewer fat people than USA, today they would lose a war against many of the countries they colonized in the 19th century. UK is probably the most delusional of that bunch.
At this point, it is about reducing harm because that is the only available option.

Your argument makes no sense other than to accelerate an imagined collapse that will not happen.
