President Donald Trump says his administration will be rolling out a “very, very strong” policy on illegal drugs, including harsh penalties for drug distributors.

Trump has not been subtle about where he stands on the battlefield between law enforcement and the growing opioid epidemic. He has reportedly praised Philippines President Rodrigo Duterte’s response to the drug crisis where drug dealers are given the death penalty.

“[They] don’t have a drug problem. They just kill them,” Trump allegedly said in White House conversations, according to Axios’ Jonathan Swan.

At a March 10 rally for Pennsylvania Republican candidate Rick Saccone, Trump said those places “have [a] zero tolerance policy.”

“If they catch a drug dealer, it is then a death penalty,” Trump said.

You guys see where this is going, right?
Dude, that's fake news. No one getting the death penalty for drug possession.

That's not what I was implying. He is going to relaunch the federal response to the drug epidemic, which will increase heavily the penalties for trafficking and selling, and that in turn will facilitate the DEA going after distributors in states that have "legalized" drugs.

Clears the way for some awesome new "mandatory minimum" subsidies to our private prison complex, too. Gotta keep shipping flesh to the slave merchants, lest they be annoyed.

This is the headline,
Report: Trump’s Opioid Plan Includes Death Penalty for Drug Dealers
Every state has legalized drugs.

The one that's killing the most people is pain pills, and medicaid is the provider.

Medicare is money they already took. There's a lot of pot distributors in those states with cash the feds probably wouldn't mind seizing.

The Mao Zedong government is generally credited with eradicating both consumption and production of opium during the 1950s using unrestrained repression and social reform. Ten million addicts were forced into compulsory treatment, dealers were executed, and opium-producing regions were planted with new crops.

Trump stealing a move directly from Chairman Mao’s playbook.

It's possible, but I don't see anyone talking about that. Everyone's talking about opioids.

Duterte didn't go after Tylenol. He went after real drugs. He wouldn't have support if he went after shit that wasn't causing problems. If Trump ramps this up by talking about opioids and then goes after weed, he won't get support.

There's already been several cases against top guys in pharma corps for pushing pain pills. That's where the shit is coming from, and medicaid is paying for it. He ought to know he could just keep going after them, and no one would fault him for it.

They want the money, Okee. The Feds don't really give a shit if your cousin dies from a heroin overdose. Just like the states that legalized just want the money. It's about the money.

Of course they do, that's why those legal pot outfits are paying taxes, and the states are loving it.

I'd think the owners and employees are also paying federal income taxes as well.

They're already getting the money.

They don't need to kill the cash cow to get the milk.

They will hack that bitch into a bloody pulp. It's what they do.

This government triggered the Whiskey Rebellion within a few years of the federal shit show coming into force. This is their bread and butter.
