I wouldn't have any knowledge of the CIA specifically, but I agree with the
logic that the only way drugs could be so prevalent is with complicit law
enforcement.
My buddy Aaron got a degree in criminal justice because he started out wanting
to be a cop. About 2/3 of the way through the program he vowed that he'd never
be a cop because of the obvious corruption at all levels of all the law
enforcement organizations with which he came in contact. He claims to know
that the state police seize large drug shipments caches and sell them to
dealers who then pay them to avoid arrest. He claims that municipal cops in
two cities where he interned were involved in the drug trade and in one case
ran a prostitution ring.
Unless he's crazy, and I have no evidence to particularly support that idea,
then our law enforcement institution is simply a mob-like protection racket.
He also spent a year in Kenya where he says they're more open about the
corruption and he prefers that system.
Nice!
