Legalize hemp and begin cultivating it in large ammounts and create a whole new American industry.

The jobs which would be created would be ridiculous.

Manufacturing
Farming
Oil Industry
Health Food Industry
Textile Industry

The list goes on and on.

.....

Actually, the god honest truth is that marijuana and prostitution was legalized, taxed, and regulated, then it would have a dramatic economic and unemployment impact on the country...would cut down significantly on crime, create cleaner environments for the oldest known profession that wont be going away, and would allow for a massive influx of secondary businesses. would it eliminate the debt and unemployment? no...but it would cause a serious dent in it fairly rapidly.

But...this is one of those bite you in the arse issues...the fed gov would rather explode than go back on a nixon era rash decision.

I was just talking about hemp lol

But the taxation of Marijuana would bring it Billions a year.

Isn't it funny how these simpletons can't wrap their heads around such a wonderful idea?

And I am for the legalization of prostitution as well. Let these women have some form of self respect.

You are on the right track.

We need true capitalism no too big to fail, no bailouts, no feeling sorry for anyone. Let the market sort it all out and then the most efficient will remain in the end.

Population reduction from a "natural disaster" like letting the hoover dam explode and a convenient earthquake in California - interesting thought

That's the whole problem...........no one in America and rightly so is going to work for pennies a day. I mean how the hell do you expect anyone to compete with China when they have millions upon millions of people working for pennies a day? Some of you are clueless.

You want to get rid of the problems in America you get rid of the speculation that is WallStreet. Look at GreenBicMan. He's some young 20 something year old that thinks the stock market is going to solve the worlds problems when it's the exact opposite......it's caused much of the worlds problems. He doesn't actually produce anything, he doesn't work, and adds nothing of value to the economy. All he talks about his making money off the backs of other people. And that's the entire problem with our economy. It's been financialized to the point that the only way to build wealth is to take it from other people. Which is basically what the stock market does. The stock market is not a free market like GreenBicMan wants us all to believe. He's a young ideologue who has no clue that thinks WallStreet is going to turn him into a millionaire without having to actually work in his life. I see lots of people like him these days.

The stock market was never meant as a means of super wealth making us all millionaires. It was a way to invest in our retirement and invest in the hardwork and economic capacity of our country. It's been rigged and completely abused to make people rich...........it's turned into a casino. the house always wins meaning the government and the corporation. The stockholders are just gamblers hoping to hit the jack pot by the time they retire. And just like a casino the more money you have the more potential you can make..........that's why the rich get richer.

Your views are twisted.

Equity markets are a great thing, they have hurt no one. You are grouping that in with other things that have taken this country down. This is not the stock markets fault.
