Capitalism--No Money in Cures or Solving Problems

[ProfD]

The USA does very little to decrease the demand for drugs. Follow the money. 

 

Yet, the same  country will criminalize and punish the low-level folks who traffic drugs. Follow the money. 

 

Right now, in another show of force, the US is blowing up fishing boats in international waters near Venezuela under the guise of narco-terrorrism.

 

Approximately 80 people have been unalived as result of military strikes on their boats.

 

Let's be clear...the majority of fentanyl and cocaine coming into the USA  isn't being trafficked on those small azz fishing boats. 

 

Most of fhd drugs pouring into the USA come from Colombia and Mexico by evey means of transportation...land, sea and air.

 

With money involved, best believe a whole lot of white folks are getting rich from the proceeds of drugs.

 

The US economy benefits significantly from everything associated with selling drugs and its usage from consumerism (cars, houses, clothes, vacation, entertainment, etc.) to medical, legal, judicial and law enforcement.

 

Just as there is no money in curing diseases and ailments, the same goes for eliminating the demand for drugs. Follow the money. 

 

Both the legal drug dealers (pharmaceutical industry) and illegal drug dealers are allowed to thrive at the expense of people being sick, debilitated and/or addicted.

 

A long time ago, it was realized that because they are going to die anyway, humans are expendable. Therefore, it makes most sense to profit from their existence.

 

Human pain and/or suffering is finite due to mortality. However, the money that can be made while folks are living can be recirculated many times over and build wealth.

 

There's no money in cures. Problems are big business especially in a capitalistic society and system thriving on it. Follow the money.
