The Telegraph announces a big win in the War On Drugs. This times it's not for the side that's high.
Apparently, in Afganistan local farmers are swapping crops; heroin for wheat. Not for any particularly honourable reasons, you understand. It's just that the price of heroin is going down while wheat prices have doubled.
I've looked and looked and I can't find the link to The Onion that should accompany that piece anywhere.

So, anyway, it seems that the way to stop production of drugs is to make drugs worth less than another crop. Part of me wonders whether legalization would have achieved that.
