Article response:

I found it to be extremely interesting how a drug ring or business works very similar to that of a regular working business such as the example used, Mc Donalds. Interesting to know how there are different levels of subordinates under the immediate drug holders. It puts a new prospective to how the drug cartels work. I lived in San Diego, CA were you see this problem affecting the countries boarders, then see on the news of violent drug problems on the street but, rarely link the two together as business operations.

Every wound does not quickly heal, every wound must be treated properly and eventually the wound will heal. Our country is simply in the process of healing, one fiber at a time.

I find that the job market is finding alternatives to opening new opportunities for those that are qualified to satisfy the requirements but, like stated in the conversation, are lacking longevity.
