drugs

The urinalysis industry is a pernicious parasite on this nation's prosperity.

Piss testers make big money when companies deploy their services. That sucks money out of companies that could be, you know, making things or providing services instead of asking people to piss in cups. Even worse, governments piss test too. It's one thing for a private corporation to piss away its money, but when the government does it, it's a slap in your taxpaying face. Keep reading to see why.

Will President Obama ever push for legalization of marijuana?

(or anything else remotely progressive?)

With the election safely won for the good guys (or at least the not-as-bad guys), I will freely admit that one of the reasons I supported Obama was that I thought he might be persuaded to lead America toward a sane drug policy, including the full legalization and prudent regulation of marijuana. Alas, I seem to have set my hopes too high (so to speak). Why do American politicians have to be such politicians? We need leaders, damn it!

This is disgusting. A young woman in the dawn of her life, Rachel Hoffman, was busted for selling a little bit of weed and possessing a little bit of MDMA. Cops used the pending felony charges to coerce her into wearing a wire during a crack and gun buy. During the buy, Rachel went missing. She turned up dead two days later.

Dead at 23 because she got caught selling weed. Tough business, that.
