I know I'm not saying anything new and pretty much everyone of any brain already knows this but here is someone else to just say it again. And yet the politicians always seem to want to up the ante. Wonder who is paying them to do that.
U.S. Agents Launder Mexican Profits of Drug Cartels Last year, the D.E.A. seized about $1 billion in cash and drug assets, while Mexico seized an estimated $26 million in money laundering investigations, a tiny fraction of the estimated $18 billion to $39 billion in drug money that flows between the countries each year. http://www.nytimes.com/2011/12/04/w...cartels.html?_r=1&nl=todaysheadlines&emc=tha2
Wall St also makes good profits laundering the drug money. Is the entire war on drugs a crock? Is the US really running both ends of this war?
