Episode description

TThe Mises Media YouTube video transcript argues that the War on Drugs has unintended negative consequences. It highlights the early release of a violent offender, enabled by drug-related prison overcrowding, who then committed further crimes. The video explains the “iron law of prohibition,” where drug prohibition increases drug potency, exemplified by the fentanyl crisis. It asserts that the War on Drugs has failed to protect people from bad choices and has made drug-related mistakes deadlier. Instead of helping users, the video implies that drug prohibition has caused a host of problems.
