WELCOME TO
REFORM DRUG POLICY PROJECT at FinchDiablog.Com
Promoting the idea that neither drug use prohibition nor legalization of drug use is necessary to a responsible and effective American drug policy and a book that details how this can be done in a way that leads to a drug responsible America. What the war on drugs has failed to do.
Americans have decided that we want to control drug use. We can do this within a scalable state by state system that tolerates adult drug use while drastically reducing if not eliminating the availability of psychoactive drugs to young people. WE CAN
DELIVER GREATER COMMUNITY HEALTH AND SAFETY.
CURTAIL DRUG EXPERIMENTATION BY YOUNG PEOPLE
DRIVE TRAFFICKERS AND DEALERS OUT OF BUSINESS
EASE NATIONAL, STATE AND LOCAL BUDGETS
The book describes the conceptual elements and implementation details that will render POLITICALLY FEASIBLE the new system described. Both Liberals and Conservatives can unite behind this market based but government regulated program.
The first of my purposes here, promoting the idea of the system, is advanced by the blogs I post and your comments. Please subscribe free by entering your name and email address up above. You will receive notification by email of each of the new post as they are published, and read what interests you and skip what doesn’t. You may also comment on the blog posts using the handy comment feature available following each of them. And you can pass them on by use of the “share this” features below and appearing on each blog post.
The second part of this Project, the book, will be aided by the volume of comments and subscriptions received.
WORKING TOGETHER WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE.

Dave good work and it is well past time that something should have been done.
gret topic for conversation.
Hi Dave:
My friend Dan Scanlan sent me your link. I’m totally in synch with the issue and look forward to reading your book. He suggested that your blog might help you to get published.
I, too, am a writer and have long struggled to find publishers. I’m now convinced that self-publishing an eBook on line is the way to go. In fact, twenty or so years ago I wrote an article for The Whole Earth Review predicting the demise of the printed book. I love printed books, but the many advantages of ebooks is most compelling, especially since the appearance of Kindle and other tablets.
Best of luck on your endeavors,
Adam Heilbrun

RIGHT ON, DAVE.!
I will be commenting later on parallels to these efforts in Switzerland, where I lived a long time, and where they are making some headway in controlled use of gov’t supplied drugs under supervision to gte rid of addiction. They also have a problem with centuries old open door to real war refugees, who today are illegal ‘immigrants’ bringing in and dispensing drugs for money, much like across our Mexican border.
Great job ! We certainly need some more dialogue about the Drug problem. Hope you find a publisher. Will certainly put it on the “must read” list!
I just subscribed to your blog. I, too, recently joined Sierra Writers and was curious about your book. I look forward to your posts. Also, I noticed a typo on your home page: “I predict you will find, as I have, that this is a subect to get excited about.” The word subject.
