Anyone that supports legalizing crack has a cracked head!
Now there's a logical argument! Crack ... cracked. Get it?
I support legalizing crack as a national priority, in these lean economic times it helps eliminate the competition. Various localities could still prohibit the sale and possession of such, subject to their own budgets for controlling the problem.
This is how it works. First open the borders under a free trade agreement. Check.
Then introduce a highly addictive substance that makes people go crazy. Check.
Then artificially inflate the price and profits of the substance by selectively seizing only about 10 to 20% of the substance. Check.
Demand that millions of non-using citizens pee in bottles as a condition of employment. Check.
Conduct raids and stigmatize entire areas, ensuring that the only viable economic activity in these areas will be the sales and distribution of crack. Check.
Sounds like the plan to me. Crack is already defacto legalized. We don't need no stinking war on drugs.
Famous quote from retired DEA agent that now teaches criminal justice. "I sure hate to think that I spent such a large portion of my life working on a useless enterprise, but it sure seems that way."
But then again, think of the people crack would take out of the gene pool.
