It would be an interesting discussion. Though it might warrant its own thread.
First problem I see is unlawful detention. I'm sure albaby could dissect it further. But I generally like the idea of government handling the drugs. They would be clean (both from disease, and from whatever they use to "cut" the drugs, if what I see on TV is even remotely close to reality**), doses could be monitored, and it cuts the legs off of the cartels/criminals if the government is basically giving it away.
**Allegedly, the dealers "cut" the drugs to reduce potency, and pad the weight of the drugs with filler. Sometimes, so I am led to believe, those fillers are harmful.
