All governments protect their banks. The US drug problem, that Mexico supplies the drugs for, is estimated at 80 BILLION dollars per year. That is a lot of money we’re sending back to Mexico. Instead of trying so hard to go after the drugs, we should go after the money before it gets back and TAKE IT ! That will do more to stop the drugs coming in than stopping a shipment or three.
Makes sense to me. What good is moving a product if you don’t get the profit?
