"The Drug War can be easily eliminated by simply securing the borders. "
Oh I dunno, the drug war really hasn't been that bad. How else will our police departments augment their funding?
Or get all those neat armored personnel carriers and flash-bang grenades and stuff?
Right, where else will they get the money for their swat training, machine guns, armoured vehicles, sat phones, overtime, lawyers to battle lawsuits etc?
Average wage for police in San Diego according to the chief of police I heard on kogo claimed it to be $100k plus with overtime and swat qualifications. Talk show host said they should get raises lol.
