Cannabis crops found in USA are being blamed on Mexican drug cartels. Sensible, because USA totally can't have drug cartels of its own, nowai.

Just for the record, I am VERY against the "War on Drugs", it is just another reason for increased government power, which surely by now, you know I am opposed. I think that the illegal, so called, "recreational drugs", should be legalized, or at least decriminalized, and the money we are wasting to be put toward treatment.

Unfortunately western governments aren't likely to move away from their existing stance, whether we ask them nicely or not.

The only logical outcomes of the war on drugs are these: 1) We lose the war, and the drug lords become the de-facto leaders of most of the Americas. 2) We legalize (not only decriminalize) recreational drugs, and the drug lords become "respected" businessmen. The war on drugs is a war we cannot win, but it the case of Mexico we had to engage in it because the drug cartels had corrupted every level of the state. Colombia didn't act until it was too late, and it's recovery has been a slow and painful one. We are not fighting the war on drugs to defeat the cartels, but to keep them in check.

The government doesn't care whether your kids get or do drugs or not, they just use it as an excuse to increase their power. Same thing with this run up to government health care. Do you think they really care about your health? Hell no, they just want to increase their power to the next level.
