BUSTS RAISE PRICE OF MARIJUANA

Editor:

I'm writing about the article, "$52 million of marijuana confiscated 
this summer," published Oct. 6.

I'm sure that many marijuana growers and sellers are thankful to the 
Gila County Narcotics Task Force for these latest marijuana busts and 
others like it.

Without operations like this, marijuana would be worth what other 
easy-to-grow weeds are worth -- very little.

Thanks to the Drug Enforcement Administration and other so-called 
"drug warriors," the easy-to-grow weed is worth more than pure gold 
- -- and completely tax-free.

Any marijuana growers, sellers or traffickers arrested will soon be 
replaced. They always are.
