BUREAUCRATS DON'T WANT TO WIN DRUG WAR

I'm writing about an October 11 story headlined "John Walters speaks
on drug eradication."

John Walters is essentially the head cheerleader for the drug war
bureaucracy. Like all bureaucrats, his goal is the continuation and
expansion of his bureaucracy. All bureaucracies want more power and more money.

The drug-war bureaucracy is no exception.

The only way to achieve victory in the so called drug war is to
re-legalize all of our now illegal drugs so they can be sold in
licensed, regulated and taxed businesses.

Victory is not the goal of the drug war. Victory in the drug war
would mean that the drug war bureaucracy is out of business.
