We should legalize marijuana then go on a global campaign of dropping barrels of weed on all countries instead of bombs. Then instead of having to pay for dropping bombs, pissing people off/making them hate USA, etc.. they will pay us for the weed and be happy. Sounds like a win/win to me. Too bad the pharmaceutical, paper, cotton, oil, etc.. companies would give their left nut to keep marijuana illegal. We could be leaders in the marijuana economy.
PS.. Trickle down (literally taking a piss on the poor)/voodoo economics doesn't work.... You usually just have the rich holding onto more money. When you have <1% owning a vast majority of the wealth then it is pretty obvious that economic system isn't working. Seems like we are just back in the middle ages. You have the ultra rich protected by the military against the poor. If you want to call that democracy then so be it. I call it a monarchy or oligarchy.
Obama should have shown some balls and just went for the middle class cuts to stay. He should have restored the rich tax rates to what they were under Clinton. OMG I have to give up so much money... The rich cry. It is so hard to live off of 500k a year.... Try living off of 20k a year you pricks. I worked my ass off for most jobs and they barely pay shit because they know they can get away with it considering the economy is pure shit. Take a look at CEO pay rates for the past 40 years compared to the workers pay. CEO's are getting paid way too much and have increased their salaries leaps and bounds past the average worker salary growth rate. Just study and work hard is all they tell you to do to be successful. Well, it helps a hell a lot more to be born into a rich family than trying to work your way out of the shit infested job market that is available to most people. American dream must be a dream of debt. Keep you in debt thus placing you forever in the rat race.
