Guess what - the Americans will not stop their drug use for as long as the countries South of the border keep pushing cheap stuff.
And... since when is America the only country with drug addicts?

there will be providers to fill a vacuum of need. As long as there's poverty in those countries, there will be the lure of money: that won't go away anytime soon.
The only true way to stop the traffic is to stop the market here. Of course we're not the only users in the world, but the problem--- like most--- is one of degree: we, BY FAR, are the largest users of illegal narcotics.
With the proliferation of drugs, the amazing spread of "legal" gambling, and the through-the-roof stats on porn, I don't see a moral change coming anytime soon. Decriminalization of drugs is the only solution; it's not a pipe-dream (hehe) but actually has been tried successfully in various countries. Treating addiction as an illness, having the addicts come in to a clinic for drugs and counseling: that's the best of a bad set of options.
