Over at Vox, German Lopez writes at length about how the American opioid epidemic has changed his opinion on legalisation of drugs. (He now thinks free market legalisation is a bad idea, basically because the opioid problem shows addiction to hard drugs is a problem that doesn't readily self regulate. And it kills people, a lot.)
I was making pretty much the same observation back in 2014.
Better late than never, German.
Hugh White is very good on this at Lowy
