Don't look for an e-number on your envelope of coke

Article Abstract:

Packs of illegal drugs do not provide information for consumers, though packs of candy do. The law has permitted profits to be reaped from trafficking but has not protected users, critics argue, yet drugs are not likely to be legalized. Social pressures could be used effectively to control demand, and the information revolution is likely to lead to more information on products and their cost. A change in the law that distinguished more clearly between different types of drugs would be helpful.
