The War on Drugs Is a Big Success - for the police state
Michael S. Rozeff on who profits from drug prohibition:
http://www.lewrockwell.com/rozeff/rozeff52.html

"This program has found an ideal target: prohibiting the production, circulation, and exchange of certain molecules. This target is ever-receding and ever-expanding, thus requiring and justifying ever-larger budgets and expenditures."

Can't be a hero without some bad guys to chase.

2. Has anybody heard the latest body count,
as to how many drugs we have killed in the War On Drugs? I have heard that we have more people in prison than China, so we must be making progress.:sarcasm:
