Seems like a pretty good cost cutting measure there.
The wars in Iraq and Afghanistan costs are over a trillion right now and expected to be between 6-8 billion by the time it's over

Another major cost cutting measure right there.
I think I've just balanced the US budget

Look, it's common knowledge that war (of any type) is good for the economy. The war on drugs is no different:
To win the war on drugs, in addition to hiring more police, outfitting those police forces with top rate equipment is necessary. Corporations will bid for contracts to supply the gear and ammunition to the different police agencies. The companies who win the contracts will hire extra workers to meet this increased production, which will reduce unemployment. With the unemployment rate down, more people will be spending again. This will help the retail sector, who will then hire more employees causing unemployment to drop even further.
See? It's win-win. God Fearing America will be back to work and slimy hell bound addicts will either be killed or put in jail to rot for the rest of their worthless lives.

Except all those extra workers will be Chinese and slaving away in sweat shops. Not sure how that helps the American Economy.
As for the prison workers, how does that help the economy? I mean sure it helps the people who own the prisons, but it just makes the black man a slave again. Especially in a world of zero-tolerance hiring practices. McDonalds won't even hire you if you have a record, whether its for murder or for smokin a joint.
Addiction is more of a healthcare issue anyway.

Please see my responses in italics below:
"Except all those extra workers will be Chinese and slaving away in sweat shops. Not sure how that helps the American Economy."
And you know this because you are a Chinese slave...Or do you have data to support this argument?
"As for the prison workers, how does that help the economy? I mean sure it helps the people who own the prisons, but it just makes the black man a slave again."
What are you referring to? I mentioned nothing about prison workers or black men.
"Especially in a world of zero-tolerance hiring practices."
As it should be. God does not tolerate drug addicts.
"McDonalds won't even hire you if you have a record, whether its for murder or for smokin a joint."
Again...Is this through personal experience...Or do you have data to support this argument?
"Addiction is more of a healthcare issue anyway."
Addiction is a pathway to hell.

Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:

You're quoting got messed up, I'll work though this.
You're right, what you said was

Well what do you think they do in prison?

What about someone who finds Jesus in prison? No forgiveness, no love.
So much anger.

Nope, haven't smoked dope in 25 years. Don't believe in it, it messes with your mind.
McDonalds will not hire a felon if they tell the truth on their application, but they don't do background checks either.

So you shouldn't help addicts? you should just lock them up and throw away the key? that's heartless.

Yet I see so much talk about alcohol on here. Alcohol messes up the mind as bad as pot does.

I don't make the rules, friend.
God makes them in His Infinite Wisdom.
Psalms 147:5
Great is our Lord, and of great power: his understanding is infinite.
I just follow them.
