I don't think you can win either way, but I think the situation would be FAR worse if all drugs were legal. Most people transgress to acohol because it's legal, if pot was legal most people would go for that too, if heroin was legal it'd be the same - then you get the problems, with the addictive drugs, or drugs that impair judgement, it would be complete carnage, car crashes and accidental death would be astronomical in frequency. But the "war on drugs" isn't helping either, I think the best thing to do would be to keep drugs illegal, but keep the fines/prison sentances to a minimum - thereby reducing the cost of drugs and the income and power of drug traders, a small portion of society would be seduced by drugs and short sentances, but most wouldn't so it would probably work out for the best.
