Also all the drug raid's goal is to seize assets/money, they dont want actually narcotic drugs because its worth $0 (they have to burn it). Assets/money will be in their pure profits. They even call it "pennies from heaven"

So really, its all a hunt to gain control of money so that others may not become as powerful and the drugs is just the reasoning, as is oil, gas, gold and other things of "value".

They have something called " civil forfeiture law" that allows them to basically rob anyone (seize your asset even you're not convicted of any crime)

That is very sad to hear. There was once a time where the people decided who ran a country and if they were not happy they would overtake such powers. They take the money on behalf of a country, yet the people receive 0% benefits from it even though their taxes/expenses pay for the people who go after these people.

Thank you for clearing that for me. Cheers!

oh I am sure there are lots of drug busts that didn't involve that much money, but really usually when they find huge amount of drugs, they also find huge amounts of cash.

And really, what do you expect them to do with the drugs? Sell them? So of course the burn it.

And really, what do you expect them to do with the money? Just give it back to the people they are arresting? If that is the policy, it encourages people to actually break the law.

Look, I think it is stupid that they are raiding people and arresting them and taking their money away. I want to see that changed. But really it isn't just a scam to get lots of free money. Those DEA agents really believe they are doing good by taking the drugs off the street.
