The decriminalization of drugs is the one area I agree with Ron Paul on. Our freedoms are more in danger of being stolen by governments looking to “protect us” from drugs than most any other avenue.

Let’s say you & I own a florist shop.
We have enough business that we are running 3 or 4 vans delivering flowers to funeral homes, hospitals, weddings, parties, etc., plus our pickups from the warehouse to get the flowers in the first place.

IF drugs are ‘decriminalized’, you & I, the ‘EMPLOYERS’ might be forced to hire such drivers for our vans because the ‘use of drugs’ isn’t illegal.

Then, pray tell me, just what insurance company would cover our vans & our overall Liability insurance for our florist shop?????

I certainly would not put myself & my lifetime of assets into jeopardy to have employees who could legally use drugs. Nor would I ask you, my partner, to do so.

No Thank You.

Ron Paul doesn’t get it....not all the ramifications, anyway.

Ron Paul also wants all countries to ‘Pinky Swear’ that they will not be aggressive towards each other.

Sure-—that will work.

Then we can get rid of the United Nations in New York & save this country lots of money.
