Singapore is a very small and extremely centralized city-state. America is an enormous country with a long history of decentralized governments. I imagine very few dealers or addicts can slip the net in such a small place, not so much for America, perhaps.

And all of that relies on the assumption that Singapore's way is the best method that we as a culture (and to a greater degree as a species) can hope to accomplish. In my opinion, Singapore's drug policy is lacking in nuance.
