Lt. Gen. H. Steven Blum, USA (Ret.), Discussion Centered on the Nation's Drug Threat

Summary: Illegal drugs and their second- and third-order effects present what could arguably be the most dangerous and clear existential threat to the American people - more than any other horrific, catastrophic threat. With the ability to touch every citizen, reach every family, and affect every household, no one is completely immune, protected, insulated, or isolated from the effects of this scourge on society.
