No, it’s due to the existence of high demand.

There will always be a way to get it into the country if there is a paying market.

Prices will increase, lowering demand. It will always get in as long as someone is willing to pay the price. But if the price is steep enough, it will be greatly curtailed. The drug market operates on supply and demand like other commodities

This is the exact same "War on Drugs" logic that's been failing us for decades now. Time to try out solutions based on a better theory, like legalization.
