You have to look at the other side: the people who decided to make drugs illegal had to know (from the example of US Prohibition) that it would do just what it has done: create an illegal industry with huge profits, and foster a disrespect for law by the general population. If somehow they didn't realize it then - since it never pays to underestimate human stupidity - they surely do by now. Yet the drug laws remain in place, honest citizens pay more taxes to try to enforce them while the drug dealers amass huge fortunes. And cops get their jollies from using the laws to arrest or shoot down just about anyone they please.
