Considering some of the points introduced in the Marijuana thread, this article brings out some others - a couple of which could be critical to the nation's future considering the direction our current POTUS wants to take us. Also consider the current work ethic, and the quality of education...

The "forbidden fruit" syndrome has always been with us. The consequences of taking a bite now are in no way comparable to those experienced by the traditional family of the 1960s. To say pot was equally available then compared to present times is just plain false, with the possible exception of...

The family structure had and has everything to do with it. With the developing social tendencies toward hedonism over the years, we're seen the decline in that quaint concept of personal responsibility and consequences for one's actions. Children are now taught from birth that they're SPECIAL...

Lack of parental supervision might also be a factor, but let's face it - kids that age are likely to try almost anything once. The problems arise when there's nobody around to show them the errors of their ways. Today's family structure leaves a lot to be desired.

For the purposes of discussion, let's disregard the illegality of the actions of our hypothetical 17 year-old kid. Let's also consider a concept that few 17 year-olds understand today - PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY. If the above teenager can take one drink or smoke one doobie on a daily basis and be...

We're now beginning to see where Obama's "fundamental transformation" is taking the USA. But on a brighter note, considering the economy is recovering so well...:rolleyes: Question to all those who voted for Barack Hussein Obama: how's that "HOPE & CHANGE" working out for you??

In spite of the Feds, there is hope for aspiring hemp farmers. Colorado Department Agriculture adopts industrial hemp rules - Journal Advocate Hopefully this progress will migrate to the Southeastern US. I've got a few acres in AL that need some crop diversity.:cool:

Suppose China, Japan, or other potential lenders decide they want a higher interest rate for the money they lend us? That's what usually happens when credit ratings start to drop or debt-to-income ratios get out of proportion.

Obama promised to "fundamentally transform America". Bankrupting and thereby eliminating the coal industry is just an example of him keeping one of his campaign promises. It doesn't matter to him whether or not coal happens to be one of our cheapest and most plentiful natural energy resources.

Getting back to the subject of the OP, this is a GREAT article that gives a good idea of exactly what ObamaCare will do for America, especially the younger people that will be most affected by it: How ironic the situation developing for this generation that has been brought up feeling entitled...

Especially coming from the POTUS who promised the most open and ethical administration in US history: Obama-We're the Most Transparent and Ethical Administration in U.S. History! - YouTube Followed up by:

There's not enough storage capacity to cover all the presidential lies for Slick Willie - to say nothing of the rest of them. Still interesting to see how the MSM covers them from one POTUS to the next.

It's only logical that the Soapbox exists because the vast majority of expediters are independent small business owners who are effected by govt regulations, political and economic decisions, and elections on the national level; so it's not surprising the majority of participants are...

Even though it's only from the GOP in Maricopa county, at least it's a start. He's up for re-election in 2016 - hopefully the good people of AZ can find somebody better by then.

Had a good atlas, when I got closer, asked the locals at convenience store/gas station and had the phone number of the consignee; the direct number into the shipping/receiving dept, not the main switchboard. In this day and age you can't afford NOT to have a good GPS, no matter what size unit...

Seems only reasonable that viewpoints from both sides be presented, rather than succumb to the flood of rants from terrorists and anti-Semite bigots.

Did anyone read this article - and if so, did you happen to notice the victim mentioned as an example? (emphasis mine) Anybody recognize this guy?? And to think, the Breaking Bad marathon just finished a few days ago.:cool: Jesse Pinkman - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Here's another interesting perspective from a knowledgeable source (bold emphasis mine): The first paragraph of the Dershowitz quote aptly describes Max Blumenthal, and offers insight to why he would appeal to the America haters and Hamas huggers who fortunately make up only a small but noisy...

Another perspective on Obama's incompetence Bottom line is the only thing that mattered to Obama, Biden, et al was getting him re-elected for the 2nd term. If Obama's immediate family weren't affected, all was good - maybe. Wouldn't it be poetic justice if his incompetence resulted in his...

Obama has surpassed Carter as the worst POTUS of modern times. Only a clueless, callous fool would commit troops to battle with uncertain objectives and no commitment to their success. Remember that Obama called Afghanistan the "good war" during his campaign, obviously a political ploy. This is...
