I'll have to call horseshit on your legalization idea. There are plenty of people out there who have used drugs for years without ever coming close to getting caught. For them, drugs might as well be legal. But guess what. Drug use still destroys their lives, and negatiely impacts the lives of everybody around them.

Of the drugs you're talking about, only a few of them are completely illegal. Cocaine, narcotics and amphetamines are legal under supervision and in the proper context. Substances are controlled based on their danger to humans and their potential for abuse. They have to be controlled because they work so well. You all-knowing social engineers are going to take those controls away and substitute what? A free market system? Or make the government dispense drugs to anybody who wants them?

Even treatment professionals don't think drugs should be legalized. You think treatment will work without sanctions? If you believe that, you probably believe people go to prison for simple possession.

There might be fewer addicts out there when enablers like y'all quit telling them they're victims, and it isn't their fault, and drugs should be legal. You're just validating the party attitudes that get them started in the first place.

And at what age are you going to make these legal drugs available?

If you think prohibition hasn't worked, wait till you try deregulation.
