No the dealers don't, but I'd be REAL curious as to how much drug lord
money goes into the political coffers (the drug lords are one thing that
I worry about if we ever do decriminalize drugs, they've got a lot
invested in their power structures which are heavily based on the
illegality of drugs).

Well you know, we wouldn't want to deprive the (legal) drug companies of
their revenue from trying to come up with drugs which help, but need
other drugs to offset the side effects, etc. ad nauseum...
