See a pattern here? Ever wonder why it’s so difficult to make even small changes in our prohibition policy “AKA War on People?” The 10 major organizations trying to end the New Prohibition enjoy a $25 million budget. The drug companies, which fear the medicinal aspects of marijuana, put that much in the freezers of politicians to stifle competition. Does Al Qaeda contribute to the Republican Party? If opposition to the Drug War continues to grow, Al Qaeda would be advised to funnel cash to prohibition politicians. Prohibition puts $3 billion in bin Laden’s hands every year. Hiding $100,000 in bribe money in his freezer, as the Congressman William Jefferson from Louisiana did, proves chump-change compared to losing billions. Congressman Duke Cunningham’s $2.4 million in contractor bribes prove insignificant to the ramifications of the Drug War.
Nonetheless, you see the kind of greed that propels our congressional representatives. Again, all those who support the Drug Enforcement Agency, do it so it will continue to exist, but not because it yields any results.
“The California Narcotic Officers Association fears the loss of their paychecks, knowing that the sensible People of California would legalize, regulate and tax marijuana the day after the feds end the National Prohibition,” Howard Wooldridge said. “Even if they did not lose their paychecks, they would be reassigned to go after drunk drivers, child predators and other public safety threats. That type of work is boring compared to kicking in a few doors a week, waving their guns around and arresting people. Heaven forbid they would have to take a stolen bicycle report!
“MS-13 gang makes billions selling illegal drugs in the USA. They would not be happy to see the end of Prohibition. They would have to go back to landscape jobs! President Bush supports the Drug War to keep his Pharma Industry lobbyists happy. He views the weekly deaths of young teens that die selling these drugs on the sidewalk as ‘God’s Will.’ So no problem there! Mexican drug cartels enjoy the finest tequila and tacos in Mexico on the money they are making. As a bonus, their narco-dollars buy them influence at the Presidential Palace in Mexico City. The private prisons in the USA lobby for more mandatory drug sentences in order to keep their cash flow coming. The Meth Makers of Mexico make billions exporting their product into the US and Canada.”
