Midnight grocery runs capture economic desperation - Yahoo! News
Would much rather have this in our lives than to have industry with far less toxicity. It's a vicious cycle as these are the same type of people who support prohibition.

Better believe it....
Just go ask any of those people if marijuana should stay illegal and see what response you get. Brainwash city is in effect. Most of them go to church on Sunday and pray to the Lord for better times which could come if they only read the Bible they claim to believe in.
This is where our leaders have taken us. $1,600,000,000 flowed out of the country again this week for oil. They wonder why they are broke.

Woah, big numbers. We are broke because we borrow money from China and other countries for shit we really dont need. And for shit we do, but IMO if you can't afford something yourself, you don't need it.

It all comes back to the same thing....
We could be manufacturing 50,000 different products out of hemp, which means the unemployment rate in the country would always be around 2%. The U.S. was energy independent up until 1971 when Nixon sent Henry Kissinger to the Saudis in an oil trade deal. All at once, we begin to hear something on the media we had never heard before. OPEC. They cut off the supply which doubled the price, sent the country into a recession, and caused long lines at the gas pump. I pumped gas in those days as the people could not pump their own. It was quite the zoo.
We could be making 8 different types of fuel out of hemp which would take 80% of the pollution out of the air and eliminate the emissions testing scam. People would be gainfully employed and we would be exporting goods. Nixon was the same piece of crap that threw the report in the trash can that came from different "experts" and said he should do away with marijuana laws. He went totally the wrong way creating the Controlled Substances Act and the D.E.A. out of the Treasury Dept. Some of the poor people do continue to have their hand stuck out which I am totally against. I believe temporary programs should be in effect for unfortunate circumstances, but there should be no "welfare generations." Most people like myself want to earn their way through life. However, it only took Dubya and the oil cartel a few months to bankrupt the entire civilized world. This is what he left for poor old Obama, who refuses to do the right thing also. The above number is $1.6 Billion per week as we import 20 million barrels of oil per week into this country. Multiply that by $80 per barrel. All of that money could be shared among the people here instead of Middle Eastern countries that claim to hate us anyways. ![]()

Except most of our oil is from Canada and South/Central America.
