Losing Battle Against Drugs
The article, Losing Battle Against Drugs, is true. I agree with the article that the regulation of drugs into America is impossible to manage. You can spend millions and billions of dollars to decrease the drug trafficking but drugs are going to find another way into the country. For most people that are into drugs such as selling them I can see why they would want too.

Even when prices for drugs are low, there are people still buying them. That is why were never going to be able to get rid of drug trafficking. Sellers don't care whom they sell it too, it just matters if their wallets are getting filled. Cocaine is such a profitable drug to sell and in the article from USA TODAY, it says it has been easier to get at any point in this decade. "Street prices for heroin and cocaine are at a record lows and purity for both drugs is at t care about the income their getting.
