Rodrigo Duterte seems to have the only answer to the drug trafficking problem….and the world is fighting him tooth and nail.
Drastic times must be met with drastic measures.
Unfortunately our country no longer has the stomach for real cures, we like to talk about it and condemn those who have what it takes to act.

@DB— That’s exactly right. The government pushes methadone, an old nasty drug that is in effect, synthetic heroin. However, it is way worse. The clinics pushing this drug with govt endorsement, charges $14/per day and will keep people hooked even when they try to decrease their dosage. Physicians will actually actually refuse people trying to get off of it, it’s sick. People that don’t have it become physically I’ll and crave it worse than heroin.
Let alone drug companies. I actually believe they may have a cure for cancer but make too much money treating it.

Like cancer, there is too much money to be made by the government, the “legal” drug companies, hospitals and rehab centers for this to ever go away.

There is only one way to rid the streets of the dealers. You must learn their identity and put them out of business. Send the ones who are highest level to prisons outside the U.S. so that they’re unable to run their businesses from their cell. We’ll have to keep the stuff out of the U.S. with a wall and beefed up security.
