We'll have to agree to disagree. Is the war on drugs winable? No! Can it be "somewhat contained" IMHO, yes.

Every time a shipment is confiscated it makes a dent. Yes, I know for every shipment that is found out by authorities, thousands of other shipments get through, so it is an unwinable war to be sure.

Yeah, we definitely disagree. No dents are made by intercepting a few shipments, prices just fluctuate to account for the loss. Some gets intercepted, enough gets through, and round and round we go. Meanwhile, cartels are richer than a lot of nation states, and violence and corruption runs rampant. The "war on drugs" is what created the cartels in the first place. The whole thing needs to be dropped. The only way to truly end this cycle is to legalize drugs.
