Recent research has analysed the link between the harmful effects of drugs relative to their current classification by law with some startling conclusions. Perhaps most startling of all is that alcohol, solvents and tobacco (all unclassified drugs) are rated more dangerous than ecstasy, 4-MTA and LSD (all class A drugs). If the current ABC system is retained, alcohol would be rated a class A drug and tobacco class B.
The scientists involved, including members of the government's top advisory committee on drug classification, have produced a rigorous assessment of the social and individual harm caused by 20 of the UK's most dangerous drugs and believe this should form the basis of future ranking. They think the current ABC system is arbitrary and not based on any scientific evidence.
The drug policies have remained unchanged over the last 40 years so should they be reformed in the light of new research? (Excerpt from main website)
its pretty neat but i still dont think the findings are scientific enough.

There is also at least 1000 times more people in the world who drink their entire lives or since they were of age once a week or even daily vs. the amount of people who take ecstasy for a few years or even 5 or 10 years while they are young or in the scene...periodically, once a year, month or every week...
