the price of pot

Educated Guesswork relays graphs – purporting to be from the ONDCP, no less – showing that the retail prices of heroin, cocaïne and methamphetamine (as adjusted for purity as well as currency inflation) declined fairly steadily between 1981 and 2001, while THC (marijuana) peaked in 1991 and has since returned to near its 1981 price.

Remind me again, is the objective of the DEA to make drugs more or less available?
