All elected officials from the two major parties advocate a policy in which many sellers of abusable and dangerous drugs are unlicensed. The sellers not only don’t screen sales to children but use children to sell and/or deliver their product to customers – including other children. They make obscene untaxed profits, shared with cooperative government officials and high priced legal help to protect them from criminal sanctions. These profits are due to the fact that their customers commit the lion’s share of crimes against the rest of us.
The officials want to put these criminal customers in jail – at taxpayer expense – after they’ve committed these crimes. They also want to put noncriminal customers into jail and make it easier to put anyone else in jail who can’t afford good legal help [like the sellers]. They want to make it easier for government officials to intrude upon peoples’ private lives and impose restrictions on routine activities such as gun ownership and being safe in their own automobiles and homes from unreasonable searches. Their stated goal is a “drug free America” – except for alcohol, tobacco, and pharmaceutical drugs; those companies bankroll their political campaigns through “party building” soft money, making election much harder for drug law reformers.
None of these politicians is supportive of even minimal reform to improve public safety and they certainly won’t show up to debate public safety issues with reformers. They don’t want voters to know what they stand for[see John 3:20] and – with today’s dishonest media – they don’t have to, since there are no media outlets willing to defend this policy against reformers in a serious debate [without filtering message] either. The only “reform” being advanced by anyone in the 2 major parties consists of diverting some drug users – mostly noncriminals – into mandatory drug treatment, also at taxpayer expense, while keeping the highly profitable criminal drug black market intact to prey upon children. They also hope to put more high level dealers into prison [with “good intentions” – or wishful thinking?]. Honest citizens need more than “good intentions” and wishful thinking; we need to eliminate the profit that comes at the expense of citizen taxpayers and their children.
