More on the GOP invasion of Mexico

I come from a small town on Vancouver Island. It has a very notorious past, in the 1970’s, 80’s and 90’s we had 1. The largest MDA manufacturing in North America, mostly in tunnel labs in the mountains. Following that we had the largest marijuana producers and smugglers in North America, they branched out into Cocaine as well. Anyway, at a book signing the Author of three books on the subject stated what we should all realize. Without the illicit drug business consider the economic impact if we took away all the billions of dollars for the enforcement, prosecution and incarceration of the “criminals” out of the system. Just saying??
