BORDER WALL

MEXICAN SIDE: The grips of addiction dominate as the cartels force feed everyone... everything. 
Picture
USA SIDE: The complicated subject that is addiction, used to run rampant as the citizenry couldn't say no. Then: The WALL was built. Addiction was immediately cured. Utopia Found!

​In the meantime: Somewhere in North Dakota - Little Johnny goes online - where he learns how to cook American Meth. 

Don't let the fake media tell you that I have changed my position on the WALL.
It will get built and help stop drugs, human trafficking etc.


Could someone please tell me: What's the etcetera?
