And we thought, oh my god, this is such a big hotel, we will never get 200 people.

And this year there are almost 1300 folks registered already. [applause] with all those conventions, weve always started in the same way, and that is having an invocation to get started on the right foot.

Fentanyl is 50 times more powerful than heroin. One gram is like 50 grams of heroin. It can be shipped in the mail. Shipped in commercial carriers. Fancy way of fedex, dhs, not Postal Service but other ways you ship packages across borders. It is shipped directly to the states or it is shipped to the canada and mexico. The wall street journal, you know theyre all about business, reminds us this is a business. The raw products cost about 1000 for fentanyl can be sold on the streets in the u. S. For about a million dollars. Thats pretty big profit margin and that motivates a lot of behavior.

Its chartered for one number and they run that number but theres a few beds within the number that they can get people in. We work on, again, the eye dedication, food, clothes, educating them about what they are involved in and reassurance because we dont want them to admit it but we are scared.
