Legalize Drugs

Should we legalize illegal drugs, heroin, cocaine and the like?
I say yes. I think it would greatly reduce the crime rate in this country. If you can buy your drug of choice for about the equivalent cost of a bottle of booze or a 6 pack what need do you have to steal. What was a $500-$1000 a day habit is now under $30. You can stay high all month on your welfare and/or social security check. Yes addicts would be given some sort of welfare, along with the option any time they chose to take it to enter a rehab that along with detoxing them would also provide education so that when they got out they were able to find jobs and become productive members of society. Burglaries, robberies and prostitution will plummet dramatically. No more drive by shootings by dealers protecting their turf.
Another major upside would be in taxes. Instead of pumping billions of tax dollars into a war we can’t win, we let the dealers set up legitimate stores the government sets the prices and profits then taxes the dealers. Paying the welfare to the addicts and letting them give the money for legal drugs seems strange at first glance. However no longer are we paying for incarcerating people for possession or sale of narcotics nor the crimes they needed to commit to get them. That’s a massive saving in police, court and jail costs. The welfare we would end up paying would be nowhere near these costs not to mention the cost to society as a whole with injuries the innocents as well insurance and legal claims. This again would keep more money in the taxpayer’s pocket.
Some will say absolutely not it will just make more addicts. However using that rationalization alcohol should be outlawed just as it was during prohibition because according to the above thinking it makes more alcoholics

Why do we ned mariage?

Why in this day and age of instant everything do we need something that's suppose to last a lifetime I mean we have speed dating, virtual dating, online relationships so why do we need a legality called marriage. I figure religions want it to insure followers and money. Why would the state want it? I mean we're stuck paying taxes no matter what and they even lower them if you're married. Lower taxes for married people doesn't seem to fit with the equality that we are all suppose to enjoy. As a matter a fact it appears to be a tax or a punishment for remaining happy. As far as having the same last name for the kids that reason went out the window when everybody started getting divorced and re-married and kids in the same household could have a half a dozen different names. The partners in this without marriage could have their names changed legally into a hybrid of both or something different so the name change is out the window. Property as long as both names are on it, it gets divided that way. I know women keep it going because they want alimony. That's the whole reason behind marriage. Legalized prostitution. At least California is honest about it and call it palimony a hybrid of prostitution and alimony.So marriage is really nothing more then women wanting money and to be taken care of for life. What happened to equal rights and the feminist movement? I guess in the naked light of day equal rights only apply in certain ways.Based on all this what is the big deal with gay marriage. As I said in an earlier post 'they have the same right to misery as straights do'.

Hairspray & Women

A friend and I were talking one day and as usual the discussion came around to women. He was about 10+ years older then me so I thought he might have some insight into why women don't think right or normal. Well it turns out he did have a theory, he called it the "Hairspray Theory". It works like this. When women are little girls their minds work fine, they are nice and friendly they can understand things, they make sense. Then it happens, fashion takes over, their mother or big sister or some other older women takes them under their wing and introduces them to "fashion". Make-up, dress up, perfume and then the dastardly culprit "Hairspray". By this point you're thinking as I was that my friend wasn't thinking to clearly himself, however having a male brain that is correctly wired I let him finish his statement. Did it ever make sense! Men and women take a look at the list of ingredients on a can of hairspray. Are any of them NOT on the DOT list of hazardous chemicals? You know the chemicals truck drivers need a special endorsement on their license to carry, the ones that the fire department puts on those protective suits and self contained breathing apparatus before they clean up any spills. The same chemicals homeland security would wonder why a civilian had them and the military would send in their bio-chemical warfare people to check them out. Those are what makes up hairspray. We are not suppose to be around it yet from before a little girl reaches 10 years old these chemicals are being sprayed directly on her scalp talk about child abuse. Don't you think that these chemicals which you need protective gear to handle permeate through her skin and bone and directly into her brain after a period of time? I do. What damage does it do to the brain and thinking process of the woman. I don't believe any scientific tests have yet to be done since I believe this is the first publishing of this theory. Enough non scientific data has definitely been gathered by men over the years and they were always told by the women they were wrong it was the men who had the problem with the brain. Talk about the inmates running the asylum, they dose themselves daily sometimes more then once with hazardous chemicals and don't think it does any damage, wow! I'm not even mentioning the chemicals in dyes, colorings, straighteners, conditioners. It's amazing we don't need special hazmat cemeteries to bury them in.It does get worse though men are now starting to use more and more of these same products. If this trend continues we may see the breakdown of civilization within a very few years. I am going to apply for a Federal grant to bring together the worlds top scientists to see if there is any way to reverse this condition in women. In the mean time please stop using it, "Just say NO to brain damage"
My friend's name remains a guarded secret to protect him.As far as I go I figure we could all use a good laugh. Hopefully the women will understand if they haven't used hairspray today.
