I wanted to share this 28 page online comic on here.
The artist - a young Australian guy - draws parallels between Nixon's 'war on drugs' and alcohol prohibition in the 1920s. Fascinating stuff.

nice comic. particularly liked from page 21 onwards (see attachment or http://www.stuartmcmillen.com/comics_en/war-on-drugs/#page-21 ).
"Prohibition laws cultivate a drug culture of amplified danger and risk with the tragedies of drug abuse used as 'evidence' for even tougher laws. But how much harm is caused purely by the laws themselves."
how does everyone feel about Milton Friedman being the main character?
check out the vid at the end of the comic - he wants to do a comic on the 'rat park' drug addiction experiments! http://www.stuartmcmillen.com/blog/cartoon-blog/australian-cartoonist-box/
