While it sounds nice to blame the current resident and congress, this $#!t has been going on for decades, centuries even.

The only way to stop it is to amend the Constitution that forbids the practice. No more riders.

“The only way to stop it is to amend the Constitution that forbids the practice.”

The problem in a democracy is you get a majority that thinks something is the right thing to do or they just want to do it, the minority is constantly getting screwed. They shouldn’t ban something unless it’s an unlabeled poison.

Yes, amend the constitution, if possible!

This is Obama’s fault. Phillip Morris lobbied Max Baucus who slipped it in at the last minute and GhettoBama signed it.
