the problem with america’s economic bailout is that it’s not focused in the right areas of disposable income.
why do we say this..
Just take a look around you. Have the taxes on Cigarettes and Cigars increased; how about the tax on Alcohol ? not in this state just yet. these so called sin taxes when imposed helped to do a few things.
raise revenue
raise awareness
cause changes in social patterns
the bottom line is this, if America wants to follow the real line of green commerce, it’s going to have to relax rules on certain crops and gain an advantage by doing it. simply because Americans will revolt if they can’t get their beer and smokes, plainly put.
Americans will also revolt if the government doesn’t come up with a less cash intensive way to create a boatload of cash, within the next year. theres’ no other way to look at it. we have to use the green to get the green. Hemp can be started today by the large tobacco growers, and as well the corrections farm systems.
that initial crop would help to start the re-greening of americas’ industry and economy.
Hemp was the original crop that produced the wealth of the young America. so much so, the British commonwealth demanded a supply be sent monthly as a tax payment. the crop grows wild, and requires no management by chemicals or soil enrichment. it will grow in the desert as well as the swamp.
This is what America needs..a Green Rebirth
We as Rastafarian’s support the legalization of Marijuana for Spiritual and Medicinal uses. we do not support the legalization of Drugs of any form. Cocaine and Heroin are Drugs because they are Processed to become Usable as Drugs. Marijuana grows from the soil, drys and does not require processing to make it usable. as such it IS NOT A DRUG.
no doubt many of you want to leave comments trying to convince us otherwise, but listen to this - if God / JAH made it, then I support it.
Now isn’t that a cute dog ? don’t you just love him. well he’s a Portuguese Water Dog. that’s what the Obama Girls will be walking come April. no date has been announced for the arrival of the new BFF, but we’re betting it’s going to be around tax time.
the breed is known to be a favorite amongst many the Obama’s looked at. Senator Ted Kennedy owns several and we read at Politicus.us that he lobbied hard for the breed to be the Obama Girls new BFF (best furry friend).
we’re wondering if they’ll be getting him from a shelter, or a breeder, or maybe even a gift from Senator Kennedy. either-way, this is a great dog for the Obama Girls. I just love how loyal the breed is. they’re smart, good with kids and they are relatively hypoallergenic apparently, since one of the Obama Girls has an allergy, that had to be taken into account; during the selection process.
today I wondered if they’d be having the secret service scan the dog, or implant a microchip into their BFF - to keep him safe and easily recognizable. you can never be too careful when it comes to your kids furry friends. you know those pesky portuguese just might be looking to steal our white house secrets - and they may not be above sending in a deep cover operative, to sniff them out so to say. lol.
All kidding aside, we’re happy with the choice for new first dog, because they’re perfect.
The Way these men are behaving, you’d think someone had actually done something really bad. instead this is a spate of violence directed toward women..
Yes Women,
No doubt you will be as shocked as I was when I first watched this video, but let me make it clear to you, this is happening alot more frequently these days. why - I’m really not sure. But after seeing this, it makes me feel that Women need special provisions under International Law for protection from attacks such as this.
these women weren’t doing anything. they were sitting in the bar, at a table, with other women. they were indeed wearing western clothes. they weren’t indecently dressed, exposing parts of their bodies or behaving in any manner that would be insulting to womanhood, or for that matter - manhood.
This particular group is a Hindu extremist group, known by the name Shri Ram Sena. they are the hindi equalivilent of the Taliban.
I wonder if these men will be punished for this violence ? I’m going to scour the indian news sites and see what I can find on this, as a follow-up. I really wonder if there is something that women in India can do to protest this, bearing in mind the majority of the political structure and faith structure is Male Centered.
the problem with america’s economic bailout is that it’s not focused in the right areas of disposable income.
