Good. One of their cocaine dealers tried to push people around at the Iowa State campus Jimmy John’s I worked at before ending up in jail. I left Jimmy John’s, went to McDonald’s, and fired a guy within four hours who kept grabbing my ass. Turns out he had been selling drugs out of the drive through window and was alleged to be cartel connected.
If college town fast food jobs have been infiltrated by cartels and I can’t deliver sandwiches without indescribably stupid nonsense like that then I don’t care if Trump goes and takes back Mexico from the cartels who have more power and technology than the government or military.
In fact, I approve entirely.
The logical conclusion of a war on drugs is enforcing those laws to the full. Banking partners laundering cartel money haven’t been investigated by any administration but Trump has discussed it through his proxies. If he goes full on for ground war, at least he’d be leveling the playing field, because absent law enforcement intervention, criminal black markets cannot be prohibited from doing jack shit. Law enforcement can’t stop the drug trade but they can regulate it through intervention. That’s not the solution to America’s drug problems, but it’s a better situation that the previous one which was essentially a free for all for the criminals without any competition from law enforcement…that sounds like it’s changing soon.
Here’s the best talk on the economic realities of the largest market on earth, the drug trade. Please send this to policy makers:
Liberals will likely feel called to protest:
