How about the "economy they inherited"? Or does that only work for our current White House occupiers?
Do I think Art Pope got a lot of Republicans elected: Yes.
Do I think Art Pope got more then he bargained for: Also Yes.

And you forgot that Repubs have had a veto proof majority since they came in and what have they done to help this state? Absolutely nothing.

But I do not support the government or anyone else telling people what they can and cannot consume. Is pot a drug? Yes. However it's much more benign substance than alcohol,other illegal substances, and LEGAL drugs! I get that it's not your thing, but to each their own. You like motorcycles. I don't. But I respect your right to take part in a potentially dangerous activity.

Some people still buy into the propaganda. But more people are starting to wake up and stop believing the BS! Prohibition doesn't work.
