Drug Dealer sells illegal drugs = Government sells illegal drugs

Drug Dealer breaks laws = Government breaks laws (Iran/contra, campaign financing....)

Drug dealer profits off selling destructive product (crack/heroin) to weak people (addicts) in bad situations = Government profits off selling destructive product (cocaine/heroin) to weak people (drug dealer) in bad situations.

Drug dealer pays for new sneakers for the neighbor's kid, keeps his aunt's lights on, feeds family = Government pays for new sneakers for the neighbor's kid, keeps aunt's lights on, feeds families (welfare,college loans, tax breaks for rich

Drug dealer uses violence to control/facilitate sale of destructive product for profit = Government uses violence to facilitate sale of destructive for profit (Panama/Noriega)

I could go on & on.
