Lets fight the war on drugs by legalizing a drug haha. I don't have a specific opinion on marijuana though most that do smoke I come across tend to fit the cliche of burn outs who always look like they are about to fall asleep and if you guys are ok with those people flying your planes or building your machines, have at it, BUT it seems like a funny message to get across that too many people are being arrested for something so let's legalize and tax it.
Why would a government want a drugged up and docile population? There's your answer. One can drink themselves into a stupor, pop prescription pills and live in a dull haze, and now smoke weed all day and just be indifferent to it all in their hazy disconnect from life. Meanwhile...
Billionaire Paul Tudor Jones warns the stock market could tank 25% if Elizabeth Warren wins the presidency Daniel Strauss Oct. 29, 2019, 12:17 PM REUTERS/Eduardo Munoz Hedge fund billionaire Paul Tudor Jones warned that the stock market could crash 25% if Elizabeth Warren wins the upcoming presidential election, according to a report from Bloomberg. Jones issued the warning while speaking at the Robin Hood Investors Conference in New York on Monday. The veteran investor joins a chorus of billionaires including Leon Cooperman criticizing Warren over her wealth tax proposal and predicting the stock market would fall if she's elected. Visit the Business Insider homepage for more stories. Another hedge fund titan is sounding the alarm on an Elizabeth Warren presidency. While speaking at the Robin Hood Investor Conference on Monday, Paul Tudor Jones warned the benchmark S&P 500 could tank 25% if Warren won the upcoming presidential election, according to Bloomberg. The billionaire investor mostly took issue with Warren's wealth tax proposal, which has received a wave of criticism from other well-known investors such as Leon Cooperman, Rob Citrone, and Jeffrey Vinik. Warren's proposal includes a 2% tax on families with a net worth of $50 million to $1 billion and a 3% tax on households worth north of that. The tax would help fund new government programs aimed at reducing income inequality and improving healthcare and education. Jones also said a Bernie Sanders presidency would send the markets plunging 20%, while the election of a more centrist candidate such as Joe Biden, Pete Buttigieg, or Amy Klobuchar would spark a 10% drop, according to Bloomberg. Further, the founder of the Tudor Investment Corporation also said the re-election of President Trump would raise the S&P 500 to 3,600. That figure represents more than an 18% jump from the index's level of roughly 3,046 on Tuesday morning. Wall Street has been growing increasingly concerned that a Warren presidency could hit stocks in sectors such as energy and insurance because of the candidates policy proposals. Warren has also proposed new regulations that would make private equity firms liable for debts and pension promises from the companies they own.

All disagreements with my view being noted from past discussions, I still say that Poco is grooming The Castro Boy- bigtime. I am not saying he is the only one, but if you want to know who one is then it is the Castro Boy. Another would be someone like Duval Patrick or a person who gets handed to her as her VP as a result of a settlement at a brokered convention. But have no doubt that the Castro Boy is in her stable. Note to binary thinkers: I did not say he was the only one. But she is not going to damage him in any way in the debates or the campaign in order to preserve him for later. Also, the notion that they are rivals is bullshit. They are working in tandem. Even if Castro is not her vp pick, he knows that he has no job now and if Poco is elected he will and it will be high level. Yeh, I know he is a dumphuk but that is not a barrier to becoming VP. I am looking at you Joe. Elizabeth Warren and Julián Castro may be rivals — but they’re buddies, too https://www.texastribune.org/2019/10/29/elizabeth-warren-julian-castro-friendship-2020/
