My wife and I often try to get to Durango, CO. We love that town and the mountain biking is great in that area.

We were there before and after legalization of pot. What a huge difference we noticed after legalization. There were groups of 20-somethings begging on street corners. In Durango, really? One of the store owners told us that people just started to show up and some even started sleeping in their store doorways. While the owner was generally for legalization, she was shocked how many people just flooded to Colorado and she believed they didn’t think about getting jobs to pay for their pot. Jersey is next — an uglier version of Colorado.

Check out todays FOX News article on Portland Oregon. Its so bad, Columbia Sportswear is thinking of moving their corporate offices because of all the homeless people camping on their doorstep, threating employees, defecating on the sidewalk, breaking into parked cars.

Other businesses have already called it done and closed up shop there.

And the Venezuelans are utterly shocked that communism has left them starving and impoverished. They just didn't see it coming.
