Do we want to increase the use of drugs in the USA? Will legalizing marijuana reduce drug use in the USA? Top 10 Facts About The U.S. Illegal Drug Market

Top 10 Facts About The U.S. Illegal Drug Market | Zero Hedge

formal and informal data paints a slightly less-fuzzy and, to some degree, larger picture of the market. Here’s the top 10 that we found, in no particular order:

1. Say what you want about the 1960s and 1970s, but the current decade has logged the heaviest drug use per person per year in the history of the United States. 23.9 million Americans aged 12 or older – 9.2% of the entire population – were “current users” (i.e. had used in the past month) of an illicit drug in 2012, the latest data available from the CDC shows. That’s up from 7.1% in 2001, and more than double the rate of 1969’s 4% (according to a 1969 Gallup poll). But the “peace and love” decades aren’t totally free of blame. The youngsters that seemed to have pioneered increasing drug usage in the 60s and 70s are apparently still at it today: 7.2% of those aged 50-54 reported illicit drug use within the past month, compared to 6.6% of those 55-59 and 3.6% of those 60-64. Each of these figures is more than double the respective rates recorded in 2002. Use of illicit drugs among those 12-17, meanwhile, is dropping, while usage in the “young adult” community of 18-25 has been rather stable at around 21.3%.

2. The most “Typical” drug user is apparently an 18-25 year old male living in the urban South, based on data from the National Survey on Drug Use and Health. The South is the biggest drug consuming region in the country by sheer numbers with 7.5 million current users, according to the National Sur

Gov Targets Ammo Supply Lines: Prices to Rise Sharply As America’s Last Lead Supplier Calls It Quits

Gov Targets Ammo Supply Lines: Prices to Rise Sharply As America’s Last Lead Supplier Calls It Quits | The Daily Sheeple:
"Now, the only ore-to-lead producer in America… the largest in the Western world… has been shut down by EPA regulation.
EPA’s regulatory uncertainty and an estimated $100 million to convert [to non-smelter manufacturing] caused the company to finally throw in the towel.
It’s not just ammunition that’s dissapearing.
American industry… American jobs…. are being regulated out of existence as well.
Lead’s still going to be manufactured in China, but it’ll be done without any environmental oversight, it’ll be scarce, it’ll be expensive, and we’ll have fragile supply lines.

It’s part of a multi-pronged attack on ammunition.
-Drying up the market by hoarding billions of rounds
-Shutting down the market with background checks, registration, and banning of online sales
-Environmental regulation to ban the use and manufacture of lead
-And after we can no longer manufacture ammunition domestically we have the UN Arms Trade Treaty to stop the importation of ammunition."

Meet the American Nomads of Walmart's Plentiful Parking Lots

Meet the American Nomads of Walmart's Plentiful Parking Lots | Raw File | Wired.com:
"If you’ve ever tried to sleep in your car on a long trip without planning ahead, you may have run into the law at some point.
Each U.S. city has a different policy and tolerance for car-sleeping and it’s hard to find a legit spot if you don’t know where exactly you’ll be stopping.

What you can count on is one of Walmart’s over 3,000 stores being nearby.
The company’s policy of allowing overnight stays in their parking lots is intended to boost sales, but has the tangential effect of creating a subculture around its locations (though they’re still at the mercy of local laws)."

You gotta problem wit dat? --------------The 10 Commandments of Government

Doug Ross @ Journal: The 10 Commandments of Government:

The 10 Commandments of Government

Submitted for your review:

I Generally speaking, government always grows -- it never shrinks -- whether times are good or bad.

II In each area it purports to "assist", government attempts to replace individual decision-making with central planning.
III In order to implement its grand central plans and solidify its power, government must take from one citizen to give to another; this is, in effect, lawful theft.
IV No matter how many times central planning fails, the self-appointed masterminds in government assert that "this time is different" and that with only a few tweaks and more money, their delusional plans will succeed.
V Because it uses funds confiscated from taxpayers, self-restraint is no obstacle to government's ambitions.
VI Its fundamental misunderstanding of human nature notwithstanding, government must claim to grant "rights", which require it steal the labors of one citizen to give to another (such as food, shelter, employment, and health care).
VII No matter how widespread the harm it causes, government will never provide an honest and historical accounting -- a report card -- of its failures.
VIII As more individuals and families are harmed by the failures of central planning, government must find suitable scapegoats, must lie to do so, and therefore must also repress dissent.
IX In order to build its network of redistribution and grow a culture of dependency on its services, government must inevitably undermine the family unit, religion, and the notion of God-given rights in order to cow, bribe, or intimidate its citizens.
X As government grows ever more powerful, it must also become increasingly oppressive through compulsion and force. To do otherwise would mean government must shrink, and this it cannot do.
Any of these characteristics recognizable?

Cow Flatulence, Big Balls and Oreos – Those and Other Lame College Studies:
"Take the U.S. Department of Agriculture, which awarded the University of Wisconsin and Oklahoma University a whopping $19.5 million in early June to find streamlined ways to reduce the carbon footprint from beef and dairy production.

While cow flatulence – or methane gas from livestock – has long been accused as partly causing global warming, more recent studies have found bovine bowel movements and the like do not harm the environment.
The cow study is also based on the notion global warming is settled science.
The reality is its one of the most disputed topics in the nation, but bureaucrats don’t bat an eyelash on spending $19.5 million in taxpayer dollars on solving for an imaginary problem."

Ken Braun: The road back from Michigan economy's 'Lost Decade' is longer than it seems

Ken Braun: The road back from Michigan economy's 'Lost Decade' is longer than it seems | MLive.com: "Michigan’s unemployment rate has begun to tick upward again. The September report from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, reflecting the month of August, showed 9.0 percent - up from a recent low of 8.4 percent in April. It had been five years since Michigan unemployment dipped below 8.5 percent, so even that looked like progress.

Even if we’re doing okay, it’s going to look like this for a while. To understand why, one must really look into the deceptively deep and still underestimated crater drilled into the Michigan economy during the “Lost Decade” from 2001-2010.

The BLS numbers say nearly 5 million Michigan residents were working in March of 2000, an all-time record. It was all mostly a sharp downhill plunge from there to September 2010, when fewer than 4.2 million of us had work. The lost job tally during this run was more than 837,000. "

Plus you can tell 'em you ain't got no big pay job, and they promise to believe you! -----Obamacare Will Cover Sex Workers, Too — and This ‘Healthy Ho’s Party’ Helped Grease the Wheels

Obamacare Will Cover Sex Workers, Too — and This ‘Healthy Ho’s Party’ Helped Grease the Wheels | Video | TheBlaze.com:

Likely no sweat for attendees of the “Healthy Ho’s Party” — a San Francisco Bay Area outreach to sex workers, complete with a burlesque show, encouraging them to enroll in universal health care,CNNMoney reported:

In the all-cash, off-the-books sex industry, workers can be particularly high risk and insurance is often out of reach. Many sex workers — a broad term that can refer to a number of services, including sexual massage, prostitution, and escort and dominatrix work — consider themselves self-employed entrepreneurs who can’t afford to purchase healthcare. But that could all change with the Affordable Care Act.

One of the key details spelled out to the enthusiastic crowd of 40 men and women on hand to watch some stripping and fill out Obamacare paperwork: Enrollment doesn’t require users to report their employment, CNNMoney reported.

Oh, and the Federal subsidies they’d get due to their income:

Individuals making less than $46,000 are eligible for a tax credit to offset their monthly costs. Many of the sex workers at the event file W-2s for their legal work, whether it be a part-time job or sex work that falls within the law. Sex workers interviewed by CNNMoney estimated this income to be less than $45,000 a year.

One of the sex workers interviewed in the segment said she should get a $211 credit each month.

“I honestly do think access to health care should be a human right,” said “Maxine Holloway” (her pseudonym), adding that in the past she’s been “so brainwashed to think it’s such a privilege.”

Sixty-five million were murdered in China – starved, hounded to suicide, shot as class traitors. 
Twenty million in the USSR, 
2 million in North Korea, 
1.7 million in Africa. 
The nightmare of Cambodia (2 million dead) is especially vivid. 
"Reactionaries" were sorted out from the base population on the grounds of being supporters of the old regime, having gone to school or just for wearing glasses.
They were taken to the side of paddy fields and hacked to death by teenagers."
