This is the worst case scenario from the NSA mass-surveillance debacle.<p>I could plausibly justify it when the NSA (a department of the DoD) was solely focused on national security (assuming the NSA&#x27;s self-imposed controls, protocols, procedures, etc were implemented and executed as the NSA Director claimed).<p>Now national security resources are being retasked to fight another failed prohibition. The US Federal Government&#x27;s failed drug policies are as much a threat to US national security as foreign drug cartels are. Re-legalize narcotics, redirect enforcement and imprisonment funding to rehab, education, abd.
