December 4, 2009 -- Oh, those crazy college kids. Crazy...or brilliant? Following Obama's speech Friday at Lehigh Unversity, a student suggested the president consider some unconventional tactics to help "stimulate" the economy. Obama commended the student for his "boldness," but said that it "will not be my jobs strategy."

  • Answer the fuckin question, Obama.

  • What a shitty response. Why can't he elaborate on why he isn't considering to legalize at least marijuana and prostitution? He mocks the student as questioning "Wisdom" when he himself cannot elaborate on even minor reasons of why he believes it's a bad idea.

  • LOL love that kid who asked that question.

  • @dacaptain84 it wouldnt hut the economy, it would hurt the picket of the rich, like those who profit from private prisons.

    im in favor of ending the drug war completely. freedom is freedom at the end of the day

  • @b3achch1ck96 You're 15 so shut up and learn how to spell. When you grow older you'll learn economic principles and you might understand that legalizing these types of things (eg. prostitution and marijuana) would improve the economy significantly. This is because people are going to do it no matter what, and then you might tax it to bring in revenue to the state. Too bad Obama is too much of a people pleaser who won't take these kinds of questions seriously. RON PAUL 2012!!

  • maybe Obama is just kind of an asshole, didnt he even say he smoked pot before? he also wants or already made some sort of "fat tax", whatever that is, i'm short and i have to be fat or else people will think i'm a homosexual or something, good thing i'm not American

  • Can legalizing pot stimulate our economy...well the gov. could regulate it and tax it. Law enforcement could stop spending money on it and focus on other things, organized crime would take a hit because it legal now, people with green thumbs could grow it, and.....im not seeing how it would hurt our economy?

  • @tititgoreng i'll shyat up when you learn shit.

  • @b3achch1ck96 shyat up, u dont kno shit.

  • @fapayal you probably pay for sex. how sad. get a life bro. or you probably do weed. you're cool?
