Herland Report: The market for illegal drugs in the United States is about $100 billion each year, according to a RAND study. 27 million Americans are on illicit drugs. 7 out of 10 Americans are on prescription drugs, according to the Mayo Clinic.
Drug abuse in America is at its all time high, constituting an epidemic of immense proportions.
As president Trump wants to close the US southern border where most of this is transported into the US and gain control over the human trafficking, drug import, entry of illegal aliens and other criminal activity, the mainstream media fights his efforts to accomplish this.
Why? Who profits from this trade?
- Baffling European hypocrisy: Europe criticizes Trump for #BorderWall, yet funds 764 km wall Turkey-Syria.
- The American Drug Mafia have a new “Enemy Godfather” in President Donald Trump #SouthernBorder.
There can be many descriptions and arguments as to how drugs have impacted American culture, be it the TV and movie industry, music, and even literary cultures.
Much of the same can be said about non-artistic cultures, such as business, science, and even medicine.
In short, throughout America’s history, each of our cultures have experienced and, to a degree, have been influenced by drugs.
And to bolster matters, according to DrugWarFacts.org, as of 2014, over 27 million Americans1, aged 12 or older, were current illicit drug users, writes Boulevard Treatment Center.
When you consider that we are a country of roughly 300 million, this fact can go to show you how prevalent drug use is in our society.
If the above illustrates a low-lying permeation into every aspect of our world by drugs, you’re correct. They are everywhere.
And of course, that infiltration can raise concern from Main Street, USA all the way to Wall Street and the White House. Worse yet is the way a drug-infused culture can influence its members without them even knowing it.
Characters drinking in a television program or movie, a song written with the premise of glamorizing drug use, or a piece of literature whose focus came about while the artist was inebriated, and then of course, news reports which concentrate on drug abuse and arrests on a day-to-day basis, can be indoctrinating your household without you knowing it.
To that end, your loved ones, including your children, might be more influenced by drugs in popular culture than you realize.

Led by Scandinavian bestselling author, Hanne Nabintu Herland, The Herland Report news and opinion website provides independent analysis from leading Western intellectuals and ground breaking YouTube interviews, cutting through the mainstream media rhetoric. It is a great place to watch interviews and read the articles of leading intellectuals, thought leaders, authors and activists from across the political spectrum. The Herland Report believes in freedom of speech and its editorial policy resides above the traditional Left vs Right paradigm which we believe has lost its relevance and ability to describe the current driving forces in Western politics.
