Well there WAS a time when these drugs were legal. But no, there hasn't been a formal system before. And clearly there would have to be a plan, obviously a free-for-all wouldn't work, and would never happen in this day and age.

So of course it will take time, effort, and planning. It wouldn't be a instant fix. But a long term effective plan is better than the costly and ineffective war on drugs which creates more problems than it solves.
