See post above - drug dealers or little people are a drop in the buck for seizures next to the big banks who “willingly” settle with DOJ and pay massive fines. Little wonder they get free money from the Fed that they can make a few points on in the market is it?
The pay-off is to corruptocrats via this fund and those corruptocrats can then use that money to fund left-wing causes.
Oops - buck = bucket
But that does not mean it is ok for the police to stop you for speeding, decide that they "smell mary-ja-wana" search your car and then clean out your wallet saying you have to "prove" your cash is honest.
They do that.
Occasionally they take enough and the person is ticked enough to fight back and after a mountain of legal bills they get some of the money back.
But worse is when they tell you that you are going to sign the money over to them or else. They have told parents that they will lose custody of their children is they do not sign the few thousand dollars in cash they are carrying over.
It is not the amount of money, it is the fricking abuse.
