We also have a full-on corporate wealth extraction/legacy business racket protection economy, too. I think DarkCycle is onto something with this interesting comment to EmptyWheel's post, "Confirmed: Our Government Has Criminalized Beauty Products" (Feb. 17, 2011).

If that’s the case–why didn’t Barry do some time for all his sundry drug use? Oh that’s right–the elite don’t go to jail.

Man, the Boomers can be hypocrites.

If you want to stop drugs create jobs when the steel mills were hiring even highschool dropouts and paying them enough to drive Caddy’s did America really have a drug problem?

President Obama thinks drugs are not a health issue but a legal matter given the rate African Americans go to jail on drug charges you would think he would be more sympathetic.

We donn;t really have a topic per se during my late nights..anything is fair game.

Rumor has it–form my tech geek friends– that the Internet kill switch won;t work too well here inUS–our infra structure is kinda wonky and they couldn;t kill all the computers
