Not.

Once again, we should wonder which entities (corporations, people) are being enriched by this endless drug war. I'm referring to entities (corporations, people) ***OTHER THAN*** the drug producers & sellers.



I think there's one entity which is considered untouchable in America. Too bad, since they might need to be "touched". Guess who.

Cocaine prices per oz. for various purchase quantities, 1981-2002, inflation adjusted:

Purchased 2 oz. at a time:

1981: $545 2002: $125

Purchased > 50 oz. at a time:

1981: $201 2002: $ 42

The conclusion is obvious: it pays to buy in bulk.

I'm still waiting to hear which single entity in this country NEEDS the war on drugs to continue.
