I look at everything with logic, and logically i saw that getting in a long discussion about this with you was gong to go nowhere. I was just trying to say i didn't want to waste my time any more than i have on this subject in this specific thread. You have your way of thinking, and i have mine. I respect yours, where you seem to not respect mine.



I'm sorry if I have a hard time seeing the knee-jerk paranoid reactions against government as "logical."

Rational thinkers have an eye for subtlety and nuance, and that statements like "Government is good" or "Government is bad" are too simplistic to describe reality.

So because i would rather wait and see change to believe it, rather than hear talk about it and believe it i am wrong and stupid? Then when i don't want to argue with someone who is very very irrational, i am now pathetic? Also the way i live my life is a shitty one? Without calling you a giant fucking asshole, I'm just going to back away slowly because someone talking this retarded doesn't deserve a response other than one filled with insults right back at them. I'm not in that type of mood, so I'm just going to move on.

I'm fine with waiting and seeing.  I'm not buying into it wholesale either.  But that's a hell of a lot different than indulging in paranoid fantasies about what you think is going to happen.  I'm not calling you stupid.  I'm saying your worldview is a little too simplistic.

it's not democrats vs republicans, I wish it were so easy, it's

Oh, I know party differences and conflicts aren't much of the picture. All I did was point out what I consider a bad democratic trait, which left unchecked, can cause all sorts of mayhem in how how government functions. They don't have the power now to change up our whole Constitution or our system of balances and checks, but if they grow motivated enough by the wrong reasons, I can see a big snowball start to roll.

Since the Judicial system does not collect taxes, it's only logical that its funding would come from another branch of government.

The issue with Guantanamo is not that it's a prison.  It's that human rights violations were going on there.  If they're building a prison within the United States that accords with the Geneva convention, that's a big step up.

If by paranoid fantasies you are talking about my very first post, i was just speaking while looking at it in a extreme way. I was saying that it wouldn't surprise me if they tried something like what i said. They hide things all the time from us, and sneak things in where they can. I was just bringing up the fact that they could do something like this if given the chance, therefore showing people that maybe they should wait to see before they get all excited. They could turn this around to be actually worse for us than the labeled "War on drugs".

I dunno about the too much government part, I think that we could be a whole lot worse off than now. It doesn't help that the government already feels that we're all helpless, stupid drones. Their nanny-state motives could turn into something much worse. Probably won't happen, but can.

They can stand up there all day and make announcements ,but untill it gets written down somewhere it`s just hot air......unless I missed something and now we dont have to pass or repeal laws ,they jusy do what they want ?

Sounds like exspanding government and making more laws to me.
Sounds like we will have even more courts /judges and laws....I see no good there.........:shrug:

It does not mean shit untill it`s in writing,which it will probably never be ,but that will stop the millions in funding,then they will tax me more to fund some crack heads rehab or makin him pay for 10,000 dollars worth of rehab to support all these new employees......:nonono:

I think Pris and Seuss really said everything that needed to be said within the first 40-some posts.

:lol: @ the 'change we can believe in' zealots.

All the change I see here is for the worse.

Hooray for managing to dupe the average drug user into supporting yet another turn for the worse in the national drug policy! :shake:

Thats all it has become now ....keep the masses satiated and do what they want with no repricussions.

A few glorious speaches and press report has managed to once again sway the foolish masses.

No law passed ,no law repealed and a bunch of money to spend on new government employees........
Is that not what they called the brainwashing in 1984....rehabilitation

As far as I know, fines go back to the government budget office, which is under the legislative branch, as is SAMHSA.

The point of the articles was that there might be issues with trying to get them into regular prisons.  They're why they're considering(but haven't decided upon) building that new prison.

You're impossible to argue with because you misinterpret every goddamn thing.  By saying the drug courts don't go far enough, I meant that I'd like to see drug policy become even more progressive than that.

It's proof that what Holder ordered didn't get done right away.  I don't know how that screw-up happened and neither do you.  If it continues to happen, then I'll consider it something more than a bureaucratic breakdown of communication.

Anyway, I just want to say I'm sorry if I was a bit harsh to anyone earlier in this thread.  It just pushes my buttons when I see knee-jerk reactions for or against someone, and over-simplistic worldviews with no room for subtlety.  I suppose if something pushes my buttons more than anything, it's excessive pessimism, particularly of the paranoid, conspiratorial variety.  I wasted a lot of years of my life thinking that way, and seeing it all over this forum set me off.

Well I agree with you to a point, there's no use being constantly pessimistic about things without trying to do anything about it. At the same time, politicians seem to follow a fairly predictable pattern and there's not much your average American can do to change that.

Well, the pattern is called bureaucracy, and it's easy to be cynical when you don't have an appreciation for it.  I try to judge politicians within realistic standards, and not by the standard of what my ideal utopia would look like.
