As has been stated already, past prohibitions didn't really work out that well.
I'd also add that 'mind-altering substances' is casting a really wide net, and could be argued to include stuff like caffeine.
I personally like Portugals approach of decriminalisation, because I think criminalising these substances usually hurts people addicted to them most, while helping those wanting to profit of addiction.
