The plants that made cocaine and heroin could make your car go.
What if we had the technology and science to turn the materials that instead are distilled to make cocaine and herion into fuel. Corn on the cob can fuel your car. Ethanol alcohol can run engines. In fact Ford's first car wasn't supposed to run on fossil fuel-it was plant based fuel that he used.
What if there wasn't a War on Drugs, and instead of "Just Say No" "Just Say Go" because everyone now growing poppies or whatever makes cocaine could sell it for more per kilo of street prices by selling it to green fuel manufacturers. Then it would be taxable, duties and customs paid instead of smuggled in air bags, and we could legally support industries in other countries that kept villages alive and less folks would need to come here for basic subsistence. Seems everyone would be happy.
So who has the Apollo style labs in Arizona, Texas and California (and New Jersey and Miami) working on conversion technologies to make this a green fuel? We ought to be able to do that.
Instead of all the drug traffickers in jail, we can let them work in the labs, and put them in the sales and acquisition departments of the green labs.

It takes political will to bust the corrupt oil cartels. But aren't we sick of their mass slaughter? And don't get me started on the "Chernobyl of the Gulf" nighmare beyond all nightmares.
