Identy check, the ability to live in any country requires a certain amount of funds to do same. If the funds are not available to live then other options are needed and this should be understandable. The advent of drug usage here has placed some individuals in a position that requires much more then the average person to survive and therefore my opinion as to why you are reading more occurrences of that which you posted. I would like to explain the situation as I see it with a few additional comments to whom ever it seems to apply.
We seem to be in a phase of thinking in terms of supposed inequality amongst individuals and therefore a disability associated with their adeptness to communicate due to this supposed inequality. When mentioning inequality towards something, be it man or machine, it is imposed that the person referencing such is stating one being superior to the other when the common denominator is no longer ?same?. The thought that communication and understanding can?t be accomplished due to this supposed inequality is absurd. If there is a problem within the communication and understanding phase then more explaining must be presented so that those persons that feel themselves in the superior sphere can better understand those that have been placed in the inferior sphere. Speaking from the imposed lower sphere that I have been placed allow me to rephrase my explanation as it pertains to the ?drug war? here in the DR with reference to that which has and is transpiring in the US.
When discussing a war, regardless of which type, different phases of same come about in a chronological order. Aside from the required planning and logistics of a war the ?invasion? is usually considered to be the first phase. This is followed up by establishing ?beachheads? and all the ?battles? that ensue throughout that ?war?.
I wish it to be understood that my following references to drugs, unless otherwise stated, pertains to their usage and not to their transportation. The fact that usage was in fact ongoing in both countries prior to the stated time frames is irrelevant due to the fact that drug usage prior to the times stated were not at a level to be considered a hazard to either country and therefore no ?war? against them was declared.
In the US the ?war OF drugs? is considered to have started with an ?invasion? in the 60?s. Due to this ?invasion? a ?war ON drugs? soon began to take place. This all happened after the ?warlords? had already established their ?beachheads? and logistics were well in place. Everything since that ?invasion? is just considered ?battles? in that ?war? and IS NOT an invasion.
Here in the DR the ?invasion? of drugs appears to have started about 6 years ago. It appears that this usage escalated due to the product being used as payment in place of money in the transportation phase. The ?middleman? not having the resources to continue the product on to its final desired point of delivery therefore money for his services then turned to introducing the product to the local population in order to recoup his desired revenue for his services rendered in their transportation.
With the advent of usage drugs become deleterious to a society and said society, if equipped, can in fact declare a ?war? against them. This ?war? not only requires trying to shut down the established ?beachheads? for their importation and their points of sale but also by establishing rehabilitation facilities for those that are addicted.
Because of the apparent facilitation that the Dominican government, to include the police and military, seem to play in the transportation phase of drugs I think it would be safe to say that a ?war? against them has not really been declared. Though we read a lot of articles about ?mules? being caught I think this plays a very small role in the amount of drugs that pass through this country on a daily basis. Simultaneously the usage of drugs here hasn?t reached the level whereas it has required the authorities to take any long lasting actions against it. Rest assured that usage will surely reach the limit here that some sort of drastic action will have to be taken. What that action might be is anyone?s guess due to the fact that the DR doesn?t have the ability or the desire to build and maintain the amount of rehabilitation centers that will surely be required to accommodate the number of addicts that drugs will produce. At the same time their ability to house users, dealers and transporters in correctional facilities is too an impossibility without the influx of a lot of capital of which they will not supply.
Money is the reason that drugs go through this country, money is the reason that drugs are beginning to become used in this country and corruption is what will make everything stay as it is.
Over the years there have been many posts commenting about the rise in prices and other things which seem to have a tendency to place the DR on a level with that confronted with living in Europe and the US. Along with these similarities will be with the number of drug users over time. When looking at the comparison of the police, military and governmental operations of these different areas it should be apparent that the DR will have a difficult if now impossible task of dealing with drug usage that is sure to come.
This disaster that I have seen happening as it relates to drugs in this country produce, in my opinion, only one victim. This victim is the same one that has always been the victim since at least 1844 and that is the average Dominican.
