This whole thing stinks. There are too many people supporting it for unexplained reasons.

Doctor Jim thinks it's globalism, and I think that's part of it. But I have a nasty theory that accounts for another part of it.

I think many of our pols directly or indirectly profit from illegal drugs.

We have this sham war on drugs going on, but the amount getting into the country remains unabated. If it was a problem the pols wanted to fix they could, but nothing is being done. If far stricter laws were passed, drugs were stopped at the border, and more enforcement occurred, there wouldn't be enough drugs get into the country for it to be profitable. The other proposed solution is legalization; this would drive the price down very low. Either way, the drug lords stop making money and, by extension, perhaps also do a number of our political leaders.

This immigration bill and its visa provisions would make it absurdly easy to get drugs into the country, but the fact that they are still illegal keeps the price high. It seems that the situation is engineered specifically to benefit the drug lords. One has to ask himself why our politicians would want that.
