poor education and poverty have to be tackled by the governments,so good and responsible politicians is a must.in afghanistan what you do is buy up all the opium you can lay your hands on and either use it in the pharm.industry or destroy it,i guarantee you that's cheaper than waging the war on drugs

i agree. it may seem stupid but if at the same time you can introduce cash crops other than poppy at the same time it would even be more beneficial. another way would be to sit down and discuss how much a filed of poppy brings. instead of just buying the drugs. pay them to harvest something else. not ideal but over the long term much cheaper, more productive and less insidious.
