sorry but that estimate is bullshit. the real value is how much it cost to make the xtasy. how much does a xtasy pill cost to make, maybe less than 25 cents a pop. so the real value is like less tahn 30,000 dollars.
the only reason they value is so high, is for all the law enforcement, the d.a. offices, court system to justify their big budgets to the taxpayers and big government.
if the laws said oh we busted 30,000 dolalrs worth of 100,000 xtasy pills, than their budget within that county would be minimized and their salarys would not be as high, cuz their is no value in keeping high salaried people when you are busting people for $30,000 worth of drugd.
thids war on drugs is a fuckin joke.
just think of everday stuff you buy like music, clothing, yada yada. there is wholesale and MSRP. a cd costs MSRP $15, but wholesale it's maybe $10, cuz profits have to be made a long the way till it reaches the store. but how much did it cost to make, maybe less than $1.00.
but like if 1,000 cds get stolen from a best buy. best buy will fill out a claim for the msrp of the cds, even though they paid whoelsale for it. so they get an extra $5,000 from the insurance company, even thought they bought them for $10 a piece. you jsut dont see it, cuz its all behind closed doors.
the true value of the merchandise, is somehwer between the cost to make it and what the distributor is selling it for wholesale.
it is nowhere near the MSRP. they jsut have to put the high end value on it. and that is the same shit they do with drugs to justify their big budgets. scams are everywhere. corruption rules the world.
