I think we should start referring to the federal bureaucracy as the government/criminal-complex.

In other news, all of this would be highly illegal if anyone other than our masters did it. Then again, laws are for little people and not our federal Lords.

I agree. Their little sideline operation.

And the money, of course is tracked right to the cartel kingpins.
Right?

I have long maintained that the ONLY plausible reason the border remains unsecured, even though we've known there was an 'illegal alien problem' since the Eisenhower administration, is that someones in high places are making a lot of money off of the drug traffic.

This is so far beyond treason that it can only be described as an ongoing insurrection.

I could just barely believe that idiocy is responsible for this, but an ulterior motive to sabotage non criminal Americans is not out of the question.

It really is looking like a sort of shadow rebellion, a hollowing out from within. By gov/organized crime/communists/socialists/anarchists and what else, who knows.

Money rules. The ends justify the means. All you need to do is look at the choices left to us in this presidential election to know that we have reached the point of no return. Business as usual will continue.

while the D.E.A. conducted such operations in other countries, it began doing so in Mexico only in the past few years. Now THAT is rich! Oh SURE it was recent..!
The ONLY time when this crew appears to volunteer info is when they're trying to perform damage control. If they say it's hundreds of machine-guns, it's thousands (which we KNOW), and if they say the drug money funny biz has been going on for a few years, it means for DECADES.
I even heard that we almost had a total banking melt down YEARS AGO if not for massive drug profit laundering.
The new "cool" way to govern is to run around in black ninjya kook gear, wave guns around, and door really shady stuff like handle drug money.
We will NEVER Americanize Mexico, instead we'll see the Mexicanization of the USA.

Have a former friend that has a son in prison for murder and running drugs, when I asked him if he knew what his kid was doing after he got arested, he said it was just bussiness and normal, needless to say, we no longer talk to mush

I’m not surprised... there’s enough cash there to help many agents live the life of the 1%. And with no way to keep track of it, an interesting question as to how much gets stashed away in offshore bank accounts.

and we wonder where bamey gets his money....
if we have basically Mafioso running the country, aren't there up and comers who will want in on the action, and will form their own "families" to do it?
yin/yang....p's/q's....karma....whatever you want to call it....
for every action there is a reaction...
Vince Foster died for a reason....
