And the failed war on drugs. Gary Johnson is the only candidate that would decriminalize marijuana.

Who gives a phukk about dope?

What is he going to do about the perpetual war scenario?

It's a major reason we have the largest (per capita) prison population in the world. Pretty ironic that we have a self admitted doper running the country. Guess the statute of lims has expired, tho I believe he still parties.

But maryjane would be almost out of vogue, replaced by pills and powders? Crack and ice?

Dunno...ask our president. Hope he hasn't gone on to pills, but who knows? You gotta be drug tested to flip burgers, but not to have the most important job in our country. Go figure!

The last admin would be the one to ask about powders, right?

Huh??? W was a drunk. He never admitted to doing blow as well as getting TA outta pot. Not to say W was clean. But he sure wasn't on the DOWN LOW.

It's obfuscation anyways.

Back to the five points above.

The American War on drugs is a joke. CIA uses drug money for black ops.
The American war on drugs is deadly. Just talk to the folks in Mexico and Central America. The American war on drugs is destroying lives. Just ask the non violent, recreational users doing time and learning to take it in the ass.
As far as I am concerned, it should have a place in the 5 pts above.

I'd put that one at number five; Loss of civil liberties.

Crack was introduced by the CIA.

I have a few more points I'd like to add but otherwise I think this is a great video. I don't fully agree on point four - fascism - because this is not merely a merging of corporation and state, it's a usurpation of state - our government has been privatized; it's but a tool of the corporation.

i think corporatism is important. many people who consider themselves left wing will argue that capitalism is the problem, when the real problem is corporatism or crony capitalism. government becoming too involved in healthcare, education and the prices of both of those skyrocketing. ask yourself, why is college so expensive? the reason is because colleges know people will take out loans, so the colleges can charge whatever they want knowing they will get their money. now what if the government abolished federal loans. now the colleges go "oh no, no one can come to our school...maybe we should lower the prices." same could be done with health care. imagine health care like cell phones. even the poorest person in this country has a cell phone, with the quality going up and the price going down. everyone can get cheap care if the government got out of the way and the TRUE free market went to work
