The foxtrotting war on drugs!
The foxtrotting âwarâ on drugs has made war profiteering the most lucrative game in any town. Sâwhy we the people are so much better served when a billionaire goes into politics, like The Don [sigh]…..

I was literally neck-deep in riverine counterdrug operations during the mid-late 1990s in the five Andean ridge countries. The so-called war on drugs is a war neither side wants to see come to an end. America’s demand for recreational drugs is destroying our neighbors to the south, in particular Mexico. America is foxtrotted.
Oh well, nice weather we’re having today.

This kind of stuff is fairly common in Massachusetts-a decade or so back, the mayor of my hometown went to jail for several years for taking bribes. Not sure if there is more corruption here than in other places, or if they just get caught more often
