While The New York Times Magazine appears to
be over
the moon about a possible Hillary presidential run in 2016,
Reason TV’s Ted Balaker reminds us about the former Secretary of
State’s absurd comments on illegal drugs. Original release
date was February 10, 2011 and the original writeup is below the
fold.
Recently,
during an interview with Mexico’s Televisa, Secretary of State
Hillary Clinton declared that the United States can’t legalize
drugs “because there is just too much money in it.”Apparently, Clinton doesn’t understand that there’s so much
money to be made selling illegal drugs precisely because drugs are
illegal.Reason.tv uses Clinton’s love of pant suits and Chardonnay to
explain the economics of prohibition to the former presidential
candidate.
