And what about the content of this story? That is, what do people here think about drug trafficking? And what do people here think about racism?
what do You think about drugs and racism?
In my opinion, false markets make money unproductively. racism is irrational and a waste of intellectual resources (time and talent).
I don't know what you mean by "false markets".
I can even imagine drug dealers secretly lobbying - no scratch that, I can imagine people who lobby in favor of the drug war secretly being drug dealers.
I do think the charge of racism is used exactly as you say, I just think that some racism does indeed still exist.
Regarding having seen it: I happen to be white, and a few years ago I had a black/hispanic girlfriend, and she pointed out some shenanigans of local political figures who were not happy with the number of hispanics showing up for their functions. They rearranged scheduled events to decrease the number hispanics attending. It made me realize racism is not nearly as obvious to me as a white male as it is to those who are discriminated against. Prior to that, I had assumed racism was pretty much dead. Around the same time, I remember hearing my boss talking on the phone about "sand niggers". Now I don't know precisely what that means, but it really irritated me. This was about ten years ago.
Within the last couple years, a woman down the street from where I now live told me about a home invasion in which she chased the guy away with an ice pick. Of course she's "not racist, but blacks are afraid of ice picks". Huh? Any rational human being wouldn't want to be attacked with an ice pick.
On a broader scale, have you not heard of white separatism or black separatism? Even more recently, I learned that a local businessman (white) thinks, because of his religion, that white people were put here to have "dominion" over the world and lesser animals, which includes black people. Definitely sounds racist to me.
However, again, I definitely agree with you that a lie of "racism" is often used as a political tool.
But regarding illegalities, do you care about rules made by the anti-dog-eat-dog politicians?
We're not talking about private property, here, where a person has a reasonable right to decide who is allowed into his gulch. We're talking about a gang of people in DC who drew a line on a map and claim to have the right to say who can and cannot come into the geographic region described by that line, even if individual property owners in the region are perfectly happy to have productive people come and work on their farms.
Separately, border control for the safety of our citizens is also ineffective. Crime is out of control in city areas near the border, and ranchers have been reduced to being vigilantes to protect their property.
The new immigration bill is over 1500 pages. you know there's junk in there that is nonsensical, has nothing to do with immigration, pork, impossible to comply rules. and that's with Rubio at the helm.
Since the US is a welfare state-it has obligations first and foremost to the citizens. Illegals have broken down many state welfare systems. For example, non-paying illegals overwhelmed several hospitals in Phoenix and Tucson, the hospitals eventually closed. If our welfare state did not exist, you would not see so many coming into the country illegally.
I live outside the country, and I can tell you there are movements to take over communities in states that Mexican nationals believe rightly belong to Mexico. The goal is to go to these communities, only speak spanish and overwhelm the local govts, eventually taking them over and driving out current residents who are US. This is very real and these people are very patient. Inversely, lots of Mexicans who went to the US to find work, build a US life have moved back to their towns in Mexico due to the discouraging economy of the US. Mexico, in contrast, has increased GDP by 5% in the last year.
One reason is protecting one's citizens. That is the primary importance of having borders in the first place. We don't do that well, compared to other nations. I am for all legal immigration. However, if you have a welfare state, services will become overwhelmed, especially if used as a strategy for immigration. Because of burdensome regulations and poor fiscal policy, opportunities are less than in prior decades. It's very difficult environment to start a business today in the US, so immigrants are more likely to work for someone else. The goal is for immigrants to create their own wealth not vie for food stamps and free healthcare like the already unemployed US population is doing.
The problem starts with welfare, poor border control, complicated policies on immigration-
You say you are for "all legal immigration". But why subject your assessment of other people's actions (immigration) to the whims of a statutory body, which we know are fundamentally politically motivated. After all, the legality of anything, including immigration, is determined by those political organizations.
The problem you are identifying here is not immigration (illegal or otherwise). The problem is the welfare state.
Why try to prop up the welfare state by limiting the number of recipients clamoring for its handouts?
And it's not clear to me how their going into debt is taking anything from you.
Margaret Thatcher made great strides in doing just that, in the 80s. The populace benefited. It is possible for the right person to get elected and turn the tide. I do not support bad policies just to bring this govt to its knees. I do support standing up for what is right and to try and achieve happiness. I believe supporting chaos, even if the goal is to deplete the welfare state is immoral. But you do whatever you like
Free people should be allowed to move freely. You cannot have open borders and a welfare state.
You're not paying for the welfare state. The looters are using stolen funds to pay for the welfare state.
It's QUITE possible to have open borders and a welfare state - of course it won't last as long as it would with closed borders. But then again, I don't want the welfare state to last very long...
The drug cartels are firmly burrowed into major cities. They use these thugs for hire to intimidate and impress. but in the end, it's about profits. drug profits.
I think the most powerful racism going on, is a Muslim's intolerance for an infidel. The desire to wipe them off the map.
Tonight's Show, Saturday, April 20th:
In the first half, John B. Wells will be joined by Judge Jim Gray for a discussion on how the United States has built large numbers of prisons, but they are overflowing with non-violent drug offenders, and how huge profits made from drug sales are corrupting people and institutions here and abroad.
In the latter half, author Doug Fine will talk about how the legal medicinal cannabis economy already generates $200 million annually in taxable proceeds from a mere two hundred thousand registered medical users in just fourteen states.
