Giving states the power make their own laws on drugs will not end the drug war. It is simply wishful thinking.

there are ways of going around the constitution to take away state rights. The drinking age is a prime example. The goverment took that right away from states by threatning to cut off federal monies for highways. No state could afford to lose that kind of money so natrually they give in.
