Most people are uninformed about the failure of the war on drugs or feel disconnected from the issue because they think they’re not directly involved.
‘6 Degrees of Separation’ is the theory that everyone on earth is linked to everybody else in six or less connections. Within these six connections is someone who has been directly affected by the war on drugs.
Therefore, the failure of the war on drugs is a global problem that we are all connected to.
Insight
