DRUG WAR!! DRUG WAR!!
What Thomas Freidman said in 1972 about Richard Nixon’s new War on Drugs:
“The path you propose of more police, more jails, use of the military in foreign countries, harsh penalties for drug users, and a whole panoply of repressive measures can only make a bad situation worse. The drug war cannot be won by those tactics without undermining the human liberty and individual freedom that you and I cherish.”
All you Libertarians out there, never lose heart.
Wanting personal liberty should not be a platform for an American political party. Government of the people, by the people, for the people is embedded in our individual hearts, every one of us human beings on the earth possess a wish to be free. That mutual wish is why we can work togehter, play together, build together and dream together. Why is this fundamental human desire, the desire that is the founding tenet of our country, not expressed through our large groups of power? Also, end the tyranny of stop lights!
