Angmoh British are the best in drug trade, can monoplozied drug trade in Asia and China.
Drug money is easy money to expand your empire of wealth, Commonwealth? Is their such thing as common wealth? At the expense of who? China Chinese and Singapore-Borneo overseas Chinese?
Ross Ulbricht, the convicted operator of the underground online black market Silk Road, was sentenced Friday to life in prison, according to WNBC.
Ulbricht received the maximum sentence he faced for seven federal convictions on counts including narcotics trafficking, computer hacking, running a criminal enterprise and money laundering.
Ulbricht, 31, had been convicted in February 2015 on all counts he faced for his role in operating Silk Road, on which illegal drugs, weapons, IDs and other items were sold. At that time, the New York City jury of six men and six women took only a few hours to deliberate and convict Ulbricht on all charges.

The Birth of the Opium Trade
European opium smugglers flirted with China’s death penalty as early as 1729, for opium’s immense profits were more addictive than the poppy. The only problem was supply, which Britain solved in 1756 by conquering Calcutta.
Clive marveled at India, the “rich and Lin Zexu who fought the opium trade flourishing kingdom.” Within decades that rich kingdom was pauperized as farmers were forced to abandon traditional crops and to grow what became the Crown’s primary cash crop, and China’s main import—opium.
Warren Hastings, India’s first governor-general, wrested control of the Dutch opium trade, rapidly expanded poppy production, and dispatched two opium-laden ships to Canton on a trial run. One was shipwrecked, but the other evaded Chinese officials and sold 200,000 pounds of opium in Huangbo.
