MARIJUANA IS LOT CHEAPER IN MEXICO THAN MAUI

Two articles ( The Maui News, Oct.  19 ) involved drug busts.  One on Maui netted 0.6 ounces of processed marijuana ( among other drugs ) valued at $364.  The other bust in Mexico netted 105 tons of marijuana valued at $340 million.  These street values compute to $9,707 per pound for Maui and $162 per pound for Mexico.

It's obvious to me that those who are so intent on legalizing pot on Maui should move to Mexico where they'll get 60 times more bang for their buck.  How easy.
