during the poppy harvest this year, it was reported that there was an unofficial cease fire of sorts because all the taliban fighters were in the fields working the harvest.
though i haven't seen any afghani tar --- austin is probably too close to mexico to get anything from anywhere else, the hash is around at $25/gram --- do the math. the farmers are getting about $50/kg at the field.
the tar sells for about $100/g on the street and $200/kg at the field. that incredible margin is what is fueling the drug war. that is the kind of money behind the current violence in jamaica.
if these substances were legalized, those numbers would change drastically and along with that, the levels of violent crime.
