Re:
Joe Guzzardi’s Column:
“The War on Drugs: $$$ Down the Rat Hole”
Joe Guzzardi’s article said the Feds spent 19 billion and the
states spent 30 billion in 2003 and accomplished nothing
in the War On Drugs.
That
amount is about seven times the estimated cost of a
double
fence and patrol road the full length of our border
with Mexico. That fence would have a huge impact on the
drug trade and the illegal alien
invasion.
Nobody
in government is serious about stopping drug smuggling
because the
big boys spend as much money buying protection as
lobbyists spend in Washington. That may be one reason
for the decided lack of enthusiasm for actual
border control.
