I disagree I think its a horrible vid. What if at the end it said continue arresting post smokers to save our economy. It would actually fit....what im saying is...The vid shows our economy dwindly, it shows healthcare dwindling it show's education dwindling, but then it says 20mil marijuana arrests a year=10Billion dollars...wich makes it appear as a cure to our dwindling economy...in other words Arresting pot smokers==BIG BUCKS,,,Somone shoulda rethought this ad
@skrilla84 You don't think education, health care and the economy in general would be better off if the $10 Billion wasn't wasted on an unwinnable war?
My post is discussing that the video was poorly made. The video to someone who didnt know any better may assume it shows the economy benifiting from drug war
@skrilla84 Fair enough, I didn't see it that way at all. I thought it was obvious that the $10 Billion was a cost to the economy but yes you're right, for some people it may not have been obvious
where does it show where our gov spends money. It shows where we arent spending money. We dont spend enough on the environment, or school, or healthcare ect. But we're spending loads on arresting innocent people
@skrilla84 America should have this right now. America needs something new and exciting. No one's happy and everyone has money problems .... Obama should give this to us as a way of saying to us "Hey, I care about you and I love you and I want you to be happy, so enjoy this until I can get us out of this mess."

@skrilla84 it doesn't show our economy dwindling, it shows where our government spends our tax money...
we spend less and less on the things that are important and more and more on arresting the innocent.
