Let’s see, it’s impossible to overdose and kill yourself on marijuana, one of the “principle” supposed “drugs” marketed by the cartels, let’s not consider the coke, or illicit “prescription” drugs they also market. So, if we eliminate marijuana as an illegal product, won’t we cut back a lot on the killings? Of course that won’t cut off the consumers in the U.S. from those other products, that cost a lot more and cater to a “higher” clientele.
I don’t get you? Why tax the rich 75%? Why is a person who has ingenuity and resourcefulness enough to make a bundle of money not entitled to it? Sure Tax everyone, but don’t punish a person just because they are able to earn more money than you or I can ever hope to earn in our lives. Did you know that among the poor, if you have enough kids and earn just enough money per year, you not only do not have to pay taxes but are given up to $6,000 dollars just for filing. They use the benefits we all have from our taxes, such as roads, schools, military protection, social benefits, and a host of other things our taxes pay for, yet do not pay one cent towards it. I am not pro rich and certainly not pro poverty but in our system I think taxation should be fairly spread out

Funny how the Cons have amnesia on ‘Operation Wide Receiver’.
