DRUGS A VICE, NOT A CRIME

The United States Drug Enforcement Administration's (DEA) drug war drives
the corrupt drug policy of many countries around the world.

Maybe the politicians and media are required to adhere to the party line of
prohibition because law enforcement, customs, the prison and
military-industrial complex, the drug-testing industry, the Immigration and
Naturalisation Service, the CIA, the FBI, the DEA and the politicians
themselves can't live without the budget justification, not to mention the
invisible profits, bribery, corruption and forfeiture benefits that
prohibition affords them. The drug war also justifies and perpetuates racist
enforcement policies, and is diminishing freedoms and liberties that are
supposed to be inalienable according to the US constitution and bill of
rights.
