Or transport makes deliveries on the way, cross docks at other locations, sells to other distributors and wholesalers, hmmmmm.


Trinidad, I really appreciate your local knowledge. Have you ever heard of a US strike or interdiction of a boat headed north or west from Trinidad and Tobago?

Does no one in this thread understand Econ 101. If the prices go up they aren't making more money because they have fewer sales. It's simple supply demand curves. How is everyone so dumb?

Did you read the OP or are you retarded? This thread is about T&T. But the same rules apply.
The thread is stupid. A politician of a tiny country is kissing Trump's arse because of something Trump has done to supposedly impact drugs in the US. Spoiler: it won't.

And like I pointed out - the dynamic pricing mechanism will lure in new suppliers to find a new equilibrium.

Unless demand diminishes, supply will find a way to deliver.

Will entice more suppliers or alternative drugs.

You'll never beat the market by attacking supply when the market is worth more than 200 billion a year.

Again, maybe true if 90% of the cocaine didn't come from 2 countries.

A price mechanism which will attract the next wave of suppliers, thus bringing the price down again. As long as demand is there, doesn't matter what is done to supply.



That’s cool as long as they can knock out a majority of them we don’t have to trip over drug heads while walking around a city

Donald the great.


Let me guess. Roger is in here saying going after drugs is bad, just like he did in the sex trafficking thread.
