Illegal Drug Trade Satire

Through my research I have found our involvement in the drug world follows the same theme that seems to recur with our government and their policies. We talk a good game that formulates a structure and a well-worded policy that appears to be in the best interest of American citizens and foreigners alike. However we also aid these countries. The problem doesn’t lie within our policies or the simple compassion from our government that drugs hurt our society. The problems occur with those that implement and enforce these policies. Cocaine and its market cannot be eradicated. The efforts of many of our political leaders have been futile because of the supply and demand of the product. In 1989, President Bush had a plan that he called, “The cheapest and safest way to eradicate narcotics” (Menzel pg.43). The result was the following,

"Hello, It's Your Drug Dealer" That's the title of a satirical ringtone about a less than sincere drug dealer. It ends with a rather smarmy voice saying, "You know, you can always call just to talk... but I mostly want to sell you drugs."

More muscles, more money? The bigger you are, the bigger the lies? Drug testing in sports is a significant issue, even though people don’t take it as serious as they should. This happens because players in sports either don’t have knowledge about steroids, or they feel the need to make themselves look bigger. The problem is when they do take this drug, the players get away with it, and become better than everyone else. That’s why I think drug testing should alter their way of testing to make the games even.

I enjoyed reading your post for this week’s discussion board forum. I may have to say that your thoughts are good thoughts; never think that you’re thinking too deeply. Deep thoughts carry stronger outputs, remember that. First, I would like to say that I didn’t think about poverty, immigrants and human trafficking until you stated this in your feedback. Immigrants and human trafficking is extremely important when it comes to VDPV being seen in the United States. There are so many scenarios when individuals are not able to get the required vaccination to keep them from contracting and spreading diseases. I believe that God wants us all to be protected from the harm of earthly diseases, but what are we to do for those who are in difficult circumstances.

When hearing the term “drug addiction,” certain words might flash across one’s mind. Filth. Slum. Junkie. Crime. There is a dirtiness that these words seem muddled in, as if addiction dwells only in disarrayed and desolate cells in which the corrupt reside. One word that surely hasn’t gone through your head is one of alarming importance: Veterans. Veterans, who have served our country with abnegation, who have seen the worst of humanity, and who have sacrificed their livelihood to preserve others, are often entrapped in a world of drug abuse. To me, and many others, it seems tragic that a hero returns home, simply to get drawn into an addiction.It’s an issue that is often dismissed as a problem low-worth people, but this isn’t always the case;

On Nov 8th if you asked Arizona, what is marijuana? About51% of your answers would have shed some sort of negative light on the plant and what it does to your body. After years and years of lies being told to the public by our government America is almost to a point in which the negative stigma surrounding weed can be removed and replaced with an understanding of marijuana and the effects it has on people and potentially society. What many people fail to realize is before the hippies and teenagers got hold of marijuana it was a very prevalent part of the world. From 2737 B.C. to 2016 Marijuana has been used to for numerous reasons: It’s been used to create textiles, ease pain and even just get the occasional high which has been a very common practice throughout history. Weed contains psychoactive materials and creates an intoxicating effect on its user which could very well spark creativity in ones

Today the number are in the war on drug is a huge failure with devastated unintended consequences, it lead to mass incarceration in the us, to corruption, to political destabilization, and violence in latin america, asia, and africa. To systemic human right abuse across the world.”-Kurzgesagt – In a Nutshell

The War on Drugs, like the war on Terrorism, is a war that America may not be able to afford to win. For over forty years the United States has been fighting the War on Drugs and there is no end in sight. It has turned into a war that is about politics and economics rather than about drugs and criminals. The victims of this war are numerous; but perhaps they are not as numerous as those who benefit from the war itself.

The legalization of marijuana is a controversial issue in North America today. Despite the outstanding benefits of legalizing this drug, we haven't gotten any closer to ending the war on drugs. There are major social, law enforcement and fiscal benefits with very minor drawbacks. Many European countries have proven than legalizing drugs can reap many benefits and we should follow these liberal ideas so we can also enjoy the benefits.

The United States is not immune to the worldwide drug addiction epidemic. Drugs pour in from Mexico daily, then distributed to throughout the country. The economic crisis in America is creating an excuse for drug use (e.g., depression, hopelessness). This chemical fix not only creates problems for the addict, but the family and community as well. Every addict has an enabler, a person who makes the addiction possible through various venues of support (e.g., financial, denial). Addicts are only concerned with their next fix and will resort to any means to obtain it (e.g., theft, prostitution, pan-handling). Some have even resorted to extremely desperate measures; for example, murder for inheritance or life insurance proceeds.

Dangerous illegal drugs have plagued American citizens and their youth for as long as the country has been in existence. These harmful drugs are not only responsible for countless amounts of deaths, but the corruption of the American society in general. All too many times have these drugs been blamed for insanity, racism, rebellion, and straight up violence. Today the government is spending approximately $19.179 billion in one year to combat these evils (Gifford). Unfortunately, even with all of this effort going in to stop illegal drug use, the “War on Drugs” is yet to produce almost any positive results. Because of this, politicians are urging the government to spend even more money to combat the seemingly

America is at war. We have been battling drug mishandle for very nearly a century. Four Presidents have by and by battled against medications. Sadly, it is a war that we are losing. Tranquilize abusers keep on filling our courts, healing centers, and detainment facilities. The medication exchange causes rough wrongdoing that assaults our neighborhoods. Offspring of medication abusers are ignored, manhandled, and even surrendered. The main recipients of this war are sorted out wrongdoing individuals and street pharmacists.

There is a serious problem that is affecting our nation everyday. The drugs that are coming to the U.S. Is killing our people. We need to start using our resources to stop this major problem. 24.6 million Americans from ages 12 and older have used illicit drugs in the past month says an article in the drugbase.gov. This facts are from 2013, so odds are that that number is increasing everyday. The drugs that are coming into this nation from other countries are killing our people and the people in other countries as well. The US should be the one to handle this epidemic that has been plaguing us for decades. In 2014 there were 47055 from drug overdose in just the United States and worldwide there were 187100 deaths says an article from overdoseday.com. This is a major problem all around the world. The Untied States need to start working with other nations to deal with

Drug abuse has always been a very delicate question as it always it deals with the health, well-being and even lives of human beings belonging to any country. The position of the United States of America towards drugs has always been very clear and distinctively negative. Throughout the history of the country there were numerous cases against drug dealers, buyers and many more. These cases did always catch the attention of civil people who by showing interest in such cases revealed their worries about the future of their own children that one-day might face this problem, too. As time goes by it get even more clear that people need to feel protection from the side of law-enforcement establishments such as police. Drugs may destroy the life

Who knew that such a product could create such destruction and chaos? Ever since Richard Nixon declared the war on drugs it would begin a chain reaction of horrifying events to the citizens of the United States.It tears apart families due to multiple arrests made by law enforcement. Not only do these people are separated from their loved ones but they have to suffer by spending long periods of time in prison. Due to this drug, not only does it increase incarceration, it would be caused to skyrocket. According to the documentary, The House I live in,the United States only make up 5% of the world's population yet it carries 25% of prison incarceration. Making the United States as the country with the highest incarceration rate. These statistics on how high these numbers must’ve become that way for a reason. A simple answer to that is law enforcement. The police have been responsible for arresting these people who merely just use drugs. A corruption within law enforcement would be an understatement. The police have an incentive to make these arrests based off drug related charges. A way to minimize these issues would be to legalize drugs. Rather than fighting this drug war, it's clear that we have been losing for decades now. If you can't beat them then join them. Legalizing drugs would be the best option.
