Oregon, San Francisco, Seattle, and Vancouver have all experimented with drug decriminalization over the past few years. The results? A deadly disappointment. Stanford professor Keith Humphreys explains why. Plus, advice on how hard a bargain Greenland should drive as a target of U.S. acquisition. And why we should embrace New York City's anti-NIMBY declaration, "It Can Happen," as the city strives to become a CITY OF YES.

Produced by Joel Patterson and Corey Wara
