On legalization of drugs: Quotes of the day from Mario Vargas Llosa

Mario Vargas Llosa, Nobel Prize in literature and a public intellectual within and far beyond his native Peru (and far more sensical than his offspring, Álvaro, more interested in provoking than serious argumentation), comes of strongly in favor of the legalization of drugs

"There is no other way. It is difficult and risky, but I think that repression leads to what we are seeing: an increase in production.

And on the war on drugs:
"I thank that the path we are currently on, it is going to lead to that all of Latin America will be what Mexico is today."
