The push to legalize drugs in California has hit the proverbial slippery slope. This NY Times story makes it clear that folks in California are desperate for revenues--even if it kills productivity and people.
Who is behind this latest attack on the teens and citizens of California? "None of which seems to faze Mr. Lee, 47, a former roadie who founded Oaksterdam University, a medical marijuana trade school in Oakland, in 2007. Mr. Lee says he plans to use the Internet to raise money, as well as tapping out-of state sources for campaign money.
More than anything, however, Mr. Lee said he was banking on a basic shift in peoples attitudes toward the drug.
For a lot of people, he said, its just another brand of beer.
Where will they get the money to run the campaign? From You! The owner of the "Mens Wearhouse", a guy named Zimmer, donated $500,000 to the "medical" marijuana initiative a few years ago. Wonder how much he will donate this time?
California is on its way to being mellow. Why not, we are in a Depression, need the revenues and who wants to be sober in these times? Oh, adults want sobriety--the children run and hide behind drugs and alcohol.
Proud of California yet?
