Someone call engineering, the EMH is malfunctioning again.
Actually, the same moralists who insisted on prohibition gave us the war on drugs. Because people just don't learn.
Nope. Trump Plague caused people to lose their jobs and have a much higher anxiety level.
Trump recession made a lot of people already living on the fringes desperate.
Trump Riots happened because instead of pushing for Police Reforms like Obama did, Trump encouraged police misconduct.
Hardly.
When confronted with the loss of his job, his salary, his prestige and his fame, Harry Anslinger cooked up another reason to exist... marijuana... once again using taxpayer money to produce profoundly untrue bullshit.... so that SUBS could parrot it and support it, and did.
And this is the eternal "conflict of interest" of government. If government solves the problem, it needs NO MORE FUNDING. If it deliberately fails or cooks up a fake problem, IT GETS MORE MONEY, which is why it ALWAYS DOES THE LATTER...
In the ’30s, Harry J. Anslinger — unrepentant racist and massive square — became the first commissioner of the Federal Bureau of Narcotics.
For reasons almost all related to bigotry, ambition, and an intense hatred of jazz (he referred to it as “the satanic music of Negroes, Hispanics, Filipinos and entertainers that results from marijuana usage”), Anslinger soon embarked upon a lifelong crusade to criminalize cannabis.**
Good lord, there are types of music that really suck, the "new country" being one, but WOW...
If you do not like a certain type of music, DO NOT LISTEN TO IT... CHANGE THE RADIO DIAL... Do not wreck all of South and Central America and pack our prisons with harmless people who smoke weed...
