A) I "double endemptified" as I liked to call it.  Meaning I doubled my investment everyweek.  I bought a pound of the best green weed for $1,600 and sold eighths at school for $25 each making $3,200.  Took me around 3 weeks to run out.  Yes father was a west point grad, both parents well educated.

B) I did read the source, I thought you didn't?  I'll look again.

D) They might get hired.   They have a better chance at working in a cocaine distribution house than bank of america.

A) So yeah.... you weren't a real drug dealer more or less.  At least not in the way most people are... this might help.

D)  Where they could steal the cocaine and use it or sell it on the street?   To work in  cocaine distribution house, chances are they'll want someone who doesn't even know what it looks like before they hire them.

A) You mean i wasn't a little thug working in a ghetto, being told what to do. Correct. I get your point though, little gang bangers don't make the same amount as a suburb dealer. Point taken. But it is a source of income to the gang operation as a whole. Isn't it obvious we should go after their profits? D) If employees are paid well they don't steal. Pot heads work for pot growers and dispensaries.. I see it as an issue but one that could be overcome.
