There's no down side to full legalization. Massive layoffs in the prison industry and DA's offices don't count as a downside in my book.

agreed.
making it *legal* isn't going to make me want to use meth/crack/whatever.
this also would de-criminalize the addict.
also, anything can make an addict fixate--have you seen those people that have 'loving relationships' with inanimate objects like the eiffel tower?
(i say addict/fixate and i do think that addiction and your 'drug of choice' takes the place of a REAL relationship, when an addict is in an active-addiction stage)
