“There is talk of taking the war to the cartels in Mexico and I have questions: So how successful have drug interdiction efforts by the DEA and associated agencies and bureaucracies been so far? We’ll just go back to 1972 to make the history simpler. Once you eliminate the foreign importers (I am suspending my disbelief), how will this stop domestic production for a very hungry market segment? Will it involve anything that affects everyone’s liberties like surveillance, asset forfeiture & seizure and the militarization of police even further. Will it require an even deeper surveillance of everyone’s financial transactions?” (01/24/25)
