Let's thread this back into the DR perspective.
I think we all know the US gov't spends quite a bit of $$ here helping to stem the trade of drugs. Should they? I mean, shouldn't they use that money elsewhere (like pay their global 'credit card' debt)? How much help does it really give to the Dominican people vs. how much it reduces drug imports into the US?
Obviously if there were no such things as illicit drugs this wouldn't be a question. But there are and they are likely to remain so for quite some time.
But how does this impact the DR?
