.... the DEA would be at the top of it. I'm not real keen on the job the DOJ has done, what with the Wall Street debacle, but the DEA needs to be abolished, plain and simple. And I dare say that the reason they want to keep it criminalized is the lucrative money and kickbacks that are made in our PIC (Prison Industrial Complex.)
