The War on Drugs has failed. After 50 years of prohibition, illicit drugs are now the third most valuable industry in the world after food and oil, all in the control of criminals. Drugs are cheaper and more available than ever, what is the answer? Narrated by Morgan Freeman

…that the so-called “war of drugs” is a failure and should end. The “war” has been America’s longest, by far, now almost half a century since it was first declared by President Richard Nixon. Trench warfare on the Western Front during World War I is a good comparison. After “going over the top” decade after decade, charging into the insatiable demand for the escape that illegal drugs will temporarily provide, we have only lost ground and not gained it. And the casualties, they do abound, both the dead in the violence of American and other countries cities, but also the “walking wounded,” the many of the 2.3 million in American prisons, who are there on drug convictions, many of those for the possession of marijuana. Directors Cosmo Mellen and Grostein Andrade released this documentary in 2015. Morgan Freeman narrates. They claim that it was intravenous heroin use by American troops in Vietnam, which suddenly exploded in 1970, that was the impetus for Richard Nixon to declare his “war,” with the entire focus being on punishment. Fast forward a bit, and Pablo Escobar is smuggling 15 tons of cocaine a day from Columbia into America. Forbes Magazine, in 1989, would declare Escobar to be the 7th richest human being. Escobar was killed in a police shootout in 1993. Today, there is an estimated $320 billion in the international drug trade, annually. The documentary covers another obvious point. Hasn’t America been down this road before? Sure, there are numerous problems associated with alcohol abuse, from failed livers to DUI highway carnage. Best to solve those problems by making the drug illegal? And so, for 13 years, from 1920 to 1933, “prohibition” was the law of the land, banning the sale and use of alcohol. Consumption of the drug increased, amid the violence of the underworld that supplied the now illegal drug. One of the best lines in the movie, after showing a prison in America in which every conceivable drug is available: If you can’t control drug use in a maximum-security prison, how can you control it in a free society? Afghanistan is termed the “Wal-Mart of the drug trade,” dwarfing Escobar by many billions, and is the key producer of heroin for the world markets. There are numerous interviews, of past and present Presidents of Columbia and Mexico, that believe the war should end. The lessons of Portugal, Switzerland and the Netherlands, are conveyed by interviews with the senior leadership. Overall, I learned very little from this documentary that stated to me what is obvious. Nonetheless, for many others who have not lived through the entire “war,” this documentary could be a useful summary of key issues why the war should end, and all drugs should be legalized. If that ever happened, expect for some “dislocations” in the illegal drug empire. Thus, since I saw no errors, I believe the movie merits a full 5-stars.

This video explains our government's hopeless effort in its War on Drugs. Billions have been spent, families have been torn apart, and prisons have been filled to over-flowing in an centralized effort to control peoples' actions. No addiction will ever be cured unless the individual wishes to pursue that course. We need medical/psychological/housing/employment help for those who wish to change their life, but the will must first exist. While closing the borders to hard drugs so the creation of new addicts can be slowed is all well and good, punishing those already caught in the web of drug addiction, is a cruel and unusual punishment. This splits up families, takes children out of familiar surroundings, and sets up another generation of likely addicts. In regard to marijuana, I agree with the video that it should be legalized and taxed like alcohol, which is far more harmful to the body. Finally, as a nurse I use neither drugs nor alcohol, yet I do realize very little is scientifically understood about how the brain functions or why certain desires exist in some people but not in others. So by government decree just to blindly deny a person of a substance that harms no one else is futile and a waste of financial resources. That money might present an individual with the medical/psychological/housing/employment help when and if they're ready to change rather than funding a bloated federal bureaucracy of quasi-police and desk jockeys. This video explains the toll the War of Drugs has taken on our struggling economy.

This is an informative film and with all the facts and statistics you would think the United States would be leading the world in ending the war on drugs instead we lead the world the number of people incarcerated. The poppy production in Afghanistan was very low when the United States went into that country and now it is at an all time high and heroin use and addiction in the US is growing. Colorado by legalizing marijuana has generated a lot of money for the state. The DEA is a drug cartel themselves and often set-up sting operations that sell and purchase drugs creating the illusion they are doing something. I am sure the CIA makes money from the war on drugs because they don't have to explain it to Congress. Then there is the asset forfeiture laws, that local police departments get to keep most of what they collect. NORML (National Organization to Reform Marijuana Laws) used to be the only group advocating for change, but today there are many similar organizations including LEAP (Law Enforcement Against Prohibition). I heard that the US Attorney General only needs to sign a piece of paper to take marijuana off of the schedule 1 list. It is past time to end the war on drugs and the US needs to be leading the world in this effort. I read one of the other reviews and I agree this film doesn't present a lot of new material but it keeps the discussion going.

The war on drugs is not a war on drugs. It is a war on people. Governments have used fear and coercion to compel people to act in manners in which they otherwise wouldn't. Much is said about how terrible drug use can be, but very little is said about the large majority of people who use "illicit" substances regularly and function in society normally. This is because, if the truth were to be widely known the narrative that drugs are bad and therefore the state should do something about it, would crumble. Many bureaucrats would be out of a job and pension. Government rarely shrinks, and therefore only when enough people realize the gross waste of human capital and incompetent loss of tax plunder by imprisoning people for use and sale of products that the market demands will this war end. Governments have no business regulating any product that the market demands..... you cannot stifle demand by regulation, but you will create a black market and incite violence due to its cost going up. Governments are full of very stupid people that fail to realize that you cannot dictate economic law, yet economic law WILL dictate to all of us. Metal failures to grasp the concept have lead to the waste of millions of lives and billions of dollars. Taxation is theft.

This was a very educating fil on the "War on Drugs" and how it failed miserably and left many people in the US victimized in the process. It's very eye-opening in how it points out the flawed perspectives that many politicians used to have back in the 60s and 70s until this day. Many well respected former world leaders are featured in its film, and they discuss how they came to the realization that the whole approach has been wrong. There are case studies such as Poland and Holland where there is legalization of drugs. The results are suprising. Thus film makes a compelling case for changing the problem with drugs in the US. Whether or not some changes get adopted remains to be seen. For now the ideas in this film are hopeful.

The only people I know wanting drugs to remain illicit directly profit from our poor drug policies. From those who have ran drugs in the past to government bureaucrats working in rehab programs in order to sustain their cushy paychecks and taxpayer benefits. The Controlled Substances Act affects everyone whether they are aware of it or not. The Economics of Prohibition written by Mark Thornton (a free download by the Mises Institute) also explains how prohibition is responsible for the increased crime on our streets and in our neighborhoods. Drugs being illegal actually encourages more people to use these substances. Kudos to Morgan Freeman for narrating this film and to Milton Friedman for everything he tried warning us about too. "The role of government is to protect the drug cartel. That's literally true." -- Milton Friedman It's long passed time we amended our cruel and unusual punishment legislation on the economy and the people.

I found this movie to be very informative. Especially, because it has given me some perspective and I resonated well with the message. The caliber of people whom were featured really shows how important drug policy reform and the social taboo should be brought into the spotlight.
Wes Reviewed in the United States on August 30, 2016
I enjoyed watching the film, as it showed the drug wars in several countries and how it spills out into the U.S. It also shows the drug rings in the U.S. and what has been done to stop it. The film goes fairly far back as it traces the history of drug usage and it shows what some countries have done to lessen the amount of usage. Many of them have made it legal. The Netherlands are a good example. I would recommend reading articles and watching other films or news segments on the different ways that countries have attacked the usage of drugs.
