WEEK 6: ILLICIT

In watching the documentary that National Geographic did on Illicit Drug trade and the black market, I became aware of how bad and dark of an issue this is. I understand how the distribution of illegal and designer bags are the tip of the iceberg for the black market and how they are used to transport even darker and more dangerous substances across the border to the United States. One thing about today's lecture that really stood out what the alteration of pharmaceuticals and how they are producing fakes of this medicine. The morality of what is going on is essentially disturbing and makes me fearful. I know that this is an issue that will not be stopped, and the only thing we can do to protect ourselves and our country is to eliminate the need for this substance and and illegal activity.
