If you attend a university, check out it's library web site.  Chances are you can log in with your school ID and access a database, which is like a search engine of all sorts of scholarly journals and the like.  The one I'm familiar with is EBSCOHost, so if you see something similar to that, you're on the right track.\n\nIf you're interested in just one source, I would like to suggest and article by Philippe Bourgois called "Office Work and the Crack Alternative among Puerto Rican Drug Dealers in East Harlem".  The journal it is in is called Urban Life: Readings in the Anthropology of the City (Fourth Edition) by George Gmelch and Walter P. Zenner.  \n\nThe overall theme of the article is that in New York City, the Puerto Rican population, rousted out of factory jobs, is now so discriminated against in the service sector that their only option is to either work minimum wage or try to make a decent living by selling crack cocaine.  Hopefully this can help get you started.

No. The simple answer to debunk this is that Cocaine was around well before the creation of the CIA. \n\nDid you know that Coca-Cola had cocaine in it briefly before caffeine only? See end of answer.\n\nAs for Crack cocaine:\nSmoking cocaine rocks began in the late 1970's. Rocking-up cocaine powder and smoking it was originally the method developed so distributors of cocaine could test the purity of the drug before it was purchased from the manufacturers. Crack has destroyed millions of lives since it was first introduced to the streets of America. Crack is a relatively new drug on the scene compared to drugs like opium or heroin; nonetheless, it has been part of our history and culture for nearly 150 years.\n\n(http://www.cocaineaddiction.com/cocaine_hist.html)\n\nBottom line: conspiracy theories are almost always wrong. If the basic premise is false then the rest must also be false.\n~~~\nBirth of Coca Cola:\nThe soft drink was first sold to the public at the soda fountain in Jacob's Pharmacy in Atlanta on May 8, 1886.\n\nAbout nine servings of the soft drink were sold each day. Sales for that first year added up to a total of about $50. The funny thing was that it cost John Pemberton over $70 in expanses, so the first year of sales were a loss.\n\nUntil 1905, the soft drink, marketed as a tonic, ***contained extracts of cocaine*** as well as the caffeine-rich kola nut.\n~~~

Have your tried BBC Bitesize? I think it covers pollution, media and unemployment/work.

I think pot usage was wider spread back then before the government dug in with all the anti-drug campaigning and subsidies to law enforcement.  The taboo of it has been softened too.  Coke was off the hook back then, really just getting started...but I don't think it's any worse than today, considering how strong the growing darker forces of the Columbian Drug Cartel have become.  So, all-in-all, the same...basing that on information from the media and the occasional creepy book or two covering the subject from Barnes & Noble....

yes i did know i was watching it on some news clip, its really amazinbg but now its up to the government to stoip fighting for oil, and realize we might have to change for once. And that their gonna have to lose money. Later were gonna fight for water, ALthough who knows cuz the guy who made it said he got 100 miles on 4 oz. of water, thats amazing. which means thats less than what we consume of water a day, now imagine what one cup of water could do? and what will happen to gas stations?

I don't think it should necessarily be taught as a political science, because "economics" is a very broad term. Granted, macroeconomics such as trade, the federal budget, the stock market, are very closely related to public policy. However, economics also covers much smaller scale issues such as a how to operate your own business. In this regard, it is not necessarily all that political.

It's what they use as read between the lines. Not all policies are good for the American People. Alot tend to go towards the Capitalists and Imperialists, for profits only, at the expense of the American People. You can surely understand that! They have hidden agendas in Legislature such as the Patriot Act. Raising fuel cost's, with record profits after Hurricane Katrina, and so on, and so on.

This is some of what you are seeing in the news today about securing our borders, and prosecuting illegal immigration.  One of the new bills broached would actually scope in on the traffickers of illegal immigrants.  I hope it goes through, but other than some low budget movies there is not much publicity on the subject.  It should be paid more attention....and if you really care about the subject you will be the one to bring the attention.  Do some research, write a paper, and get it published...it's that simple.

Go back to the consumer driven economics of the Clinton era. It seemed to work a lot better then the supply side economics of the Bush term in office. How on earth he can say that the economy is strong is beyond me. Just another Repuglican lie from the most corrupt leader in the world.

I have my bachelors degree in economics if you could be more specific on what the paper needs to be about maybe I can give you an idea.  I am not to familiar with Peru's economy so I can't help you as far as that goes.  A good topic that has a lot of information on it would be the American banking system and how it operates.
