We don't have a black-market problem, we have a demand problem: if people didn't demand drugs, there wouldn't be a market at all.

You seem to be implying that we should focus on reducing demand. That could be true, but "X implies Y" does not necessarily imply that the best way of eliminating Y is to eliminate X. For instance, "We don't have a murder problem, we have a "people exist" problem."
