The Taliban are the cause of the drug problem in the USA and elsewhere ?

So you were born under a cabbage patch as well?

This is old hat too.

<<Catherine Austin Fitts aschwa, I am not sure what the best strategy is. The problem is global. Our financial system is now global, the federal and state policies are controlled by global players. Our addiction to organized crime profits is local, federal and global. Narcotics profits and the network of covert operations they fund are part of that global system. The local, state and federal financial ADDICTION needs to be illuminated, and then state by state action that is possible because the global powers that be have to back off. Otherwise, their ability to use dirty tricks to keep this going is firm and in control.
The power we are up against is not just the rich. The food chain on this means that many many people in a local economy are dependent on the cash flows and do not even know it. That is why legal reform may depend on doing the economic changes that Solari is proposing.

To get off our financial addiction to drugs, we are going to have to create an offsetting increase in productivity and wealth fast....and do so in a way that prevents too much hiccuping of the economy.

That argues for local and state action. This is a very place by place thing.

Drug reform is about reforming our addiction to drug profits and negotiating a truce with accumulated drug capital that deals with the real deal of how power and money really work in this country.>>
