I was asked in a high school class again today, “What is the war against drugs?” It seems an easy question to field, but I found myself stumbling on my answer.
The phrase itself is an obvious misnomer, The War on Drugs? What do they do, line the drugs up against a wall and machine-gun them down?
Or do we declare war on anything we feel unable to overcome? The war on poverty, the war on illiteracy, and the war on just about anything you really can’t face. It doesn’t make much sense.
