Here's the White House report on their war on drugs.
Here's a couple of highlights.
1. Page 11: "Eliminating high-potency indoor grow labs and marijuana cultivation on public lands." "Disrupting the criminal distribution of prescription medications for non-medicinal purposes."
The Obama Administration has put their policy in writing. Finally the truth can be told and we can break down the argument one element at a time.
2. On page 111 is a list of the many agencies listed in the budget who will get a cut of this 'let's keep the war on the people called the drug war' pie. All one has to do to get a piece is oppress the American public. Follow the money.
