  • there is a war on drugs because drugs enable you to expand your consciousness.

  • True statement

  • Dramedybabe, I read an article the other day about child slavery in the U.S., not neccessarily sexual in nature (but possibly so, as well), it estimated 10,000 children right here in our own country, are being held as domestic (household) slaves. My question is: When I hear outrage from people almost daily about a form of slavery which ended over 140 years ago, why is there no outrage about this form, which exists today? Food for thought.

  • Very good thought.

  • We should also quit the war against prostitution. Like drugs, it only forces the activity underground where it becomes more routine to break other laws. We should focus our efforts less on saving us from ourselves and focus more on saving us from others.

  • Bravo!

  • yeah, human trafficking is sick and disgusting for sure! true true! good that you increase awareness here!

  • Because all the clients are upscale businessmen and "family oriented" politicians. So they focus on drugs and not on human trafficking.

  • Check out BeanerLaRue, your YouTube twin.

  • you should run for congress and patch up the crack in the Liberty Bell

  • write your congressmen and tell them to watch this video

    and call the Washington Post too

  • There is no point in having a war on drugs, neither should drug rehab clinics exist, as drugs are illegal in the first place and therefore ought not exist - so no money should be spent on them in any way :)
