I'm not sure if I think it's a giant conspiracy. I think its a giant set of circumstances that people in power can benefit from. Not sure it was set up to be a conspiracy originally. But I think at some point in 1970-1980's the people in power might have realized that drugs were way to prevalent to really effectively "stop" so might as well profit from them. And now years and years of this sort of thing has been going on. And the system depends on it for it's existence.

If the government really wanted to stop the influx of illegal drugs, and individuals into this country they could. It's not like they don't have a large number of active soldiers and even former soldiers they could easily muster to patrol the border if they wanted. And that's just doing it the old fashioned way.

America needs its drugs (and illegal aliens)to survive day to day. It's a lot easier to keep huge country (made up of 50 separate mini countries) in line if half the people who live there are under the influence of mind altering drugs. I think the powers that be have come to appreciate what they can do for themselves (like line there own pockets) if they have a bunch of willing dependents. And not have to appease angry constituents.

Just seems way to easy to stop the Imported crime but no one does. Seems like it could be a Cabal to me. Perhaps an unintentional one that "they" benefit from and "we" do not.
