Agreed.

The underlying social problem with hemp is that it encourages useful people to become slackers.

The brain, as you know, has a really complex reward circuitry that we are built with. No question that we were designed for hard work, thought, delayed gratification, moral behavior (the highest type of circuitry deals with this).

Weed and most other drugs short-circuit the circuitry and turn people into worthless lazy bums a.k.a. Rats or Libertarians.

The commies were very smart in incorporating drugs as a strategy of undermining the USA. It worked.

People I know who were chronic users have had their frontal lobes turned into gristle. Promising as children, raised in homes with high-achieving middle class parents, they lost all motivation in high school and college. High IQs but not motivated enough to do homework. Some are living on the fringes. Many are dead, very young some of them.

I always thought our developing knowledge of neuroscience vis a vis motivation and achievement, these past 30 years, would close the book on the recreational (sic) drug era, but the opposite occurred.

Yes the COMINTERN really hit one out of the park with the USA recreational drug strategy.

They, on the other hand, particularly the Chinese, treat drug use in their population with intracranial lead therapy.

So why did we send our manufacturing, technology, and money to a communist country?

Yes, we. Clinton, Gore, and Biden were on board with the trade deals with China, but most of its support came from the right, including many Freepers.

That's what really destroyed our country. Increased pot use, Joe Biden, the student loan bailouts, and a host of other ills were the results of that.

You've seen how the government has weaponized every other agency against us. Do you honestly believe we can trust them to wage an honest war on drugs?

They're the ones allowing the drugs to enter the country.

Excellent! Well said.
