money sink after the DoD or no worse than third now that we get to stake Wall St as they gamble away more money than exists to siphon off a relative couple of bucks.

If you cut the military by half or so, end the stupid failure that is the war on drugs, and stop the madcap corporate communism and invested a good chunk of those resources into our country we could get in gear again. We must get some kind of claw back as far as inheritance taxes too. The fucks that stole all the money plus a shitload should seriously be helping to pay this crap back. 100 million+ is 90% and I will mock and dismiss any family farm whining. A few of their eggs can be broken to make the omelet.

Anyway, if my state had any sense we'd already be Vegas East/Little Amsterdam and flip Uncle Sam's bullshit off. I'm pretty sure we could easily eliminate individual taxes and get more people productive in the economy but it seems the no brainers are always utterly off the table.
