Is it unique that the USA has drug users in the population are they responsible for the drug war that rages on in Mexico. Hasn't pulque and cocoa been used in Mexico for eons and is Canada and Europe immune from drug abuse. NO they are not and it's not the usage of the drugs that is the Wars mission it is the cost of the drugs. North Americans buy everything for inflated prices including illicit drugs. United States is everyones cash cow. Are Americans hiring teenage hit men to target traffickers and politicians in Mexico?
Here's one for you: When people buy prescription drugs from Canada,guess where the Canadians get them from? They get them from us! The canadian companies buy the drugs at a discounted price then sell them for a profit to american citizens.The problem is that even with the canadians making a profit,their prices are still lower then if you buy directly from our own country.So why are the drug companies charging us so much?
Now on the illegal front everyone knows marijuana is still the most widely used drug in America compared to all the other illegals.Make it LEGAL already.You eliminate alot of drugs coming into the country,dealers on the street,you can tax the hell out of it,employee tons of people,and slap an age on it like alcohol with the same driving regulations.
Without a doubt. Making war on other countries for something that Americans demand that they supply. More than a bit irrational. Legalize drugs, or find a way to eradicate demand (good luck on the last one) but the problem isn't South America, the Far East or Mexico, the problem is us.
This is one of the best Documentary films that I have ever seen. It answers the OP with a resounding YES. The war on drugs is a war against US citizens.
I HIGHLY recommend EVERYONE watch this film.
The part about the Socal "crank" epidemic in the 80's tells the entire story. FACT:Reagan could have snuffed Meth production before any of us knew what it was! (besides the MC's). That part of the film makes my mouth drop wide open like WTF?!! Big Pharma has been running the show for at least 25 years!! Unbelievable!!!
Please watch this film and then tell a few friends to watch it and keep passing it on!!!
It is available to view for free on the internet. You can buy it online anywhere, you can Netflix it, etc etc. I caught it on Sho. It is permanently in my DVR.

Great movie. Also, did you notice the subliminal message when it shows a clip of people cheering for Olly North? It was at approximately 55:18 and it said, "Oliver North finances Contras by selling cocaine to U.S. cities."
My favorite quote was the guy on the PCP trip. "Church will pimp a ***** backwards."
Yes with out a doubt. Reagen has not only f'd this country up with his "War on Drugs" but the entire world as well.
It has been over 20+ yrs since the war on drugs has started and what have we gotten out of this? What has any country that followed us gotten out of this? No success just pure violence.

Just FYI, Nixon started "The War on Drugs" in 1969. Reagan was famous for his "Just Say No" campaign, I believe his wife was actually the driving force.
I wouldn't say that Reagan f'd up the whole world. He did some great things. He was just a pawn for the NWO, just as every single POTUS since, including our present one.
Corporations have been running this country for decades. This whole left vs. right thing is a fabrication made up by a few of the powers that be (news corps) to keep the citizens busy infighting so that no real, desired change can happen.
I work for the post office and when GWB took office he started to block the sale of canadian drugs to american consumers.That meant that seniors who were on fixed incomes were forced to pay higher prices, rather then getting charged the same low price our country was charging as an export.

Peraonlly I think thsoe that use the drugs are responsible for messing this country up and the death of alot of people to supply them . Even if it was lweag they would still be robbong and stealing to get their fix. I certainly don't want alot of potheads around me ;we have enough problems with alcoholics and othe raddictions as it is.We are consuming 2/3rd of the drugs because we have such intelligent and smart people.We have alot fo addicts ;plsin and simple.
