Drug dealers


The Drug industry is major money making industry. It is real major problem, the world faces to try and combat this problem. As long as there is a demand, there will always be someone willing take the risk of supplying and selling drugs.

I understand, however why and how people sell drugs. Tax free money is the best money, because as people we go to work day in and day out. After taxation, working class families are left feeling upset and no real better off after all the household builds have been paid.

Higher earners, earn above a certain wage then the tax goes into the next tax bracket 40% I think this is. When this is weighed up practically, a person studies hard, gets a well paid job, then almost half their wage is taxed. The fact the goverment waste the tax payers money makes it even worse. So it understandable why people sell drugs.

why work for £5 an hour, when you can easily earn £10 in 10 minutes?

"You have made some very honest points, in my opinion. The drug industry is a major money making industry, but then why would it not be. Like Lee clearly stated, where there is a high demand there is always money to be made. However I would like to note, that drug dealing shouldn’t be promoted nor should it be criticised. Why should we allow such service to be conduced with society, when we should really be helping those people and not encouraging it? If drug dealing stopped on the streets, then maybe addicts would more likely go about seeking help. It’s true that drug dealing pays well, but let’s be honest if u add up the amount of hours you have to stay on the streets to get that £10, you might as well have a job; and those who make a lot on a daily basis crnt exactly do anything constructive with it. In my opinion, it’s not worth it; you either end up behind bars, looking over your shoulder the rest of your life or unfortunately on your own supply. The majority of people in my area are dealers and mainly because they want to work for themselves or someone they respect and look up to. However drug dealers are not bad people, there just out for making money like everyone else, by a different means…."

The reponse

In favour of drug dealing, if you were to add up the time you spend on street the profit justifies the time spent. When you sell drugs your on call, so its not like you have to do a solid 8 hours shift. So does it make sense to get a job?

But I agree with what your saying, the drug dealer can not do anything constructive with the money, but if your smart and have legit people around you ,constructive things can come out of drug money.
