You are right it is killing everyone as well as destroying families. You have to understand something with this meth problem. This drug was being used heavily in war world 2. Methamphetamine was first synthesized in 1919 in Japan by the chemist A. Ogata. The method of synthesis was reduction of ephedrine using red phosphorus and iodine.\n\nMeth was used by german soldiers to enhance there ability to fight a long battle. Now to this date our own military is using forms of this drug for our pilots doing bombing runs over Iraq and Afghan in the early stages of the war. Another problem is this stuff is so easy to make with your everyday household cleaners and effdirn. This has been getting alot of media coverage from a local level. But as far as national coverage your right not enough. I think by far if there was a name for pure evil..this would be it. I call it the devil drug.. Maybe in someways if the nation goes national with this they will expose our usage of this drug in our government. Maybe that is why there is not national coverage. The only thing we can do is work out of our communitys to warn kids and teens about the dangers of this drug. I know first hand what it can do because I am a former user of this drug. I know of what state that is using commericals to make a postive affect to stop the problem in there state. How ever it is not catching on in others. But believe that all the local police and task forces are working over time to help stop this problem.\n\nI can only hope and pray that something is gonna bust this thing wide open on a natioanl level. But there are many risks involved if our own government uses forms of this drug. This was a great question... I just hope many will take it as serouis are you.  =)

You have a valid argument. (And I am not in favour of drugs, to make that quite clear.) There are many bad substances that are legal, and others are not. It is all down to political blindness, or at best tunnel vision.\nIf the now illegal drugs would be legalised, the criminal element attached to them would fall by the wayside. Just as it did in 1933 after the prohibition of alcohol was lifted. Never has there been more alcohol consumed in the USA (for very high prices) as during the prohibition years. That should tell us.\nUnfortunately our politicians never learn anything from History.

Gary Web investigated who was bringing in most of the drugs in the 1980's. He was shocked to find out it was the C.I.A. George H.W. Bush was the head of the C.I.A at the time so we know he was apart of it. Barry Seal was one of the C.I.A agents who actually got caught in this operation has a picture of him and his good buddy Bush sitting together when they attended college.\n   Now that Bush's son George W. Bush is in the white house, it is no surprise that when the troops arrived in Afghanistan and seized the poppy fields that Heroin is now a bigger money maker than ever. \n  All this cost Garry Web his life. He was found dead after he broke the drug story about the C.I.A and narcotics trafficking. Two bullet holes to the head and the rest is history for Mr. Web.\n  Afghanistan was important because of the Taliban and big money in drugs for our Government. Iraq was big because Bush and Cheney and there oil company Halliburton could seize the oil in Iraq and make a bundle of cash.\n  Don't you just love the people who are in charge of our government.

That could make it difficult for the drug dealers to sell drugs at a expensive cost and the should do the same for the US.

You forgot to mention ignoring the aids crisis, starting a war on drugs that brought us many problems we have today, closing mental hospitals and driving up the number of homeless people.\n\nOh Reaganomics, ridiculous tax cuts that Bush Sr had to repeal.

Another division or so and we might actually become effective at stopping both the human traffic and drugs. I think people or underestimating the positive effect this could have against the drug insurgency. Mexico has always been a major player and the drugs have contributed to the immigration problem.

Both are losers and a BIG waste of time, money, lives etc. Though many here want to "address it" with much passion, sometimes logic has to take the forefront. If you find yourself standing in a fire ant hill. Stopping harder because you figure eventually the hill will run out of ants rather than concluding no matter how hard you stomp, you will NEVER get them all, and just get the holy s*** bit out of you is ludercious.\n\nThe war on drugs. I want to laugh everytime I say that phrase. There is no war on drugs, just a scrimach against SOME drugs. But the US is a chemical nation. Want to lose weight, take a pill. Want to stop your kids from acting like kids, give them a pill. Moody? Take a pill. You can not have a party that is work a salt unless you have at least alcohol. Then when you figure in pharm(pharmasutical)parties made possible by the parents being hooked on every perscription drug imaginable. The media does no better than to dicourage it. We make lovable likeable charaters of Authur(a drunk), Mr Buttermaker(drunk baseball coach)Cheech and Chong(pot heads), the list goes on. The government could not stop Prohibition, and they won't stop drugs. They might as well legalize it so they can pay for the losing war on terror.\n\nWar on Terrorism. Interesting moniker, don't you think? \n\ntr·ror·ism (tµr“…-r¹z”…m) n. The unlawful use or threatened use of force or violence by a person or an organized group against people or property with the intention of intimidating or coercing societies or governments, often for ideological or political reasons.\n\nLets see. That would include sneaking onto a ship(disguised as Native Americans to boot)snatching the Crown's tea and tossing it into the harbor. But THESE TERRORIST were called PATRIOTS. My how the truth shifts when it favors the one telling the history. This so-called war on terror is a failure because no one is on the same page. The US say the insurgance in Iraq or Al Qaeda are terrorist, they say the same of the US. Back in WWII under the foot of Jim Crow Black soldiers were sent into the meat grinder of the German's Gothic Line in Northern Italy. It was thought impenetrable. ONLY the Black plattons etc were sent against it because it was a no-win mission, a death assignment. But then Lt Vernon Baker was sent with his men. As the shells started falling the White Captain(in charge of them) deserted, taking the radio WITH HIM. They had no choice but to fight on. They couldn't call in for help. They ran across the German communication lines and cut them. They then made it up the hill, taking out several machine gun nest and artillery batteries. When he was asked why he fought so hard for a country and a government that would have strung him from a tree for looking at a White woman "the wrong way", he said THIS(the USA)was the only country he had(in spite of how bad it was)and someone else was trying to control it, and he could not allow that to happen. So, I do not see it as inconceivable(as those in denial and the addle minded) that there are thousands if not tens of thousands of Vernon Bakers in the Middle East. Who feel their governmenr maybe crappy BUT IT IS THERE ONLY COUNTRY AND THEY DO NOT WANT TO SEE SOME FOREIGNERS CONTROLLING IT. As Gandhi said while resting the British: "It is better to have one's own bad government as oppose to someone else's good government." They are the home team with way more to lose. They are not going to quit, they have no place else to go.

Legalize drugs for recreational use. Legalize prostitution. Stop the USA from imposing its will onto other nations, unless said nations try to impose their powers onto people not currently under their control. Disallow any corporate or organizations funding of political races. Abolish all copyright and patent law. The judge's ruling should read, "All current patent & copyright holders now need to learn how to share. This world will be a much better place when we have all learned to share, especially knowledge." Dissolve every company or orginization that prey upon other companies or individuals with frivilious lawsuits, and disbar their lawyers.

So, you're acknowledging that America needs to blame people such as yourself, then.\nAmerica is bad, as you say. Who's fault is it, that America is in the shape it's in?\nYour hero Lush Rim-Job is definitely complicit in how society is faring right now. \nOn the one hand, he denigrates liberal Democrats. On the other, he doesn't advocate a visionary on the Republican side who might be able to turn this country around.\nIn fact, the status quo serves his needs quite well. Both sides give him a bully-pulpit from which to sling his diatribes, while offering no real solutions.\n\nBut, then, all one has to do is check into Lush Rim-Job's sordid past; his attempts to hide, then downplay his addiction to prescription drugs, all the while calling others who were addicts the scum of society simply because he's rich & they're not.\n\nI blame those in our current government for how screwed-up things are right now, economically, socially, and morally.\nPeople like GW Bush cannot advocate for a moralistic society when he's complicit in political double-dealings with the Saudis, especially right after 9/11.\n\nAnd, I blame his current administration for lax security at our borders. I blame his current administration for not enforcing our immigration laws, especially right after Clinton's "look the other way" policies.\n\np.s. I've answered about your "cannibal dancers" in your question with the same title.\n\nYou've got some serious issues. Why don't you ask your Lush Rim-Job for solutions?  He can sure stir things up, but he surely doesn't offer any viable solutions.\nWell, what can we expect from a guy whose mind is muddled from those prescription drugs he abused over all those years.

Hey man you need a new drug dealer fast.

These are different issues.  Abortion is legal but drugs are not legal.\n\nActually, I think the US should legalize some drugs and pot and make money taxing the substances.

That is exactly what it is; they use scare tactics.  I do not belive in hard drugs such as coke/crack or any other.  But I do belive in freedoom.  If somone whats to kill themselves over such a drug as coke I propbably don't want to talk to that person or want that person using up the valuable resources on this planet a anyway because that drug makes you stupid.  But if they do the drug and don't affect me in anyway, then it really doesn't matter does it.  As the offspring would say It is not a war on drugs it is a war on personal freedom.  Besides if they legalized everything do you have any idea how much money the government could make, look at holland.  They have free health care to all,  If you want to go to school to be a brain surgeon for ten years they will pay for the whole thing, Lastly they are one of the greenest countries in the world relying soley on wind,solar,and water energy which is not cheap but saves the tax payers trillions.  There is a correct way and a wrong way to regulate drugs.  Holland makes money off of it and all the people benifit.  While america throws everyone in jail all the way down to the peace loving hippies and it costs all the tax payers so much more.  We would not have an eight trillion dollar national defict if our government officals would just think.  Do you know George washington our first president grew hundreds of acres of weed for use of the hemp for rope on sailing ships and many other uses; our government would have locked up the founding father of this country and threw away the key.  I can keep going too.

Drugs are more powerful and could be used to self medicate If people wanted to.That would NEVER happen because the pharmaceutical company's would not let it.Its all about MONEY,Good Luck to you,"The smoker you drink" Take care!Alcohol is responsible for 50% of every thing considered negative in this country.And nearly 60% of the murders,and traffic deaths.Drugs don`t even come close to the destruction caused by booze!

No, meth is the drug of choice for politicians now. Coke is too expensive. Thats also why they are slow to do anything about the mexican illegals...it would stop their supply.
