That it should. Legalize it here and we could control the market, take Amsterdam off the map and do so with a smile. Shit, how about taxing churches, they're so insterested in public policy, let's tax the mother fuckers, as my boy George would say.

thanks p4b that web page was very informative.

I agree churches shouldn't be meddling in political policy as they do, but there's no way I'd support setting a precedent to tax religion.

Sounds like alot but our GNP is over $13 trillion. Some may still bitch but compared to the average Joe tax payer that has an income of $40,000 with a $120,000 home mortgage (which is on the low side).......it's not really that bad.

It's still an unacceptable amount P4B, there's no way you guys can pay it off within a generation or two. Our government, here in Canada, has been putting a lot into paying off our national debt. They've managed our finances so well that our debt has gone tens of billions down (out of a few hundred billion), managed to institude huge tax cuts that are actually proportionate unlike Bush's "Middle Class Tax Cuts", and still our economy is stronger than ever. I think the Bush administration could actually take a few lessons from us on financial management!:D :p

God knows this stupid Iraq war has cost hundreds upon hundreds of billions of dollars, plus ruined their international reputation, plus done AlQaeda a huge favor for their recruitment efforts, plus killed thousands of Americans, then wounded and brain-damaged tens of thousands more, on top of killing hundreds of thousands of Iraqi's.
That, right there, is shitty fiscal, security, and foreign policy management.

Even if the whole conflict is won tomorrow and Iraq stabilizes, how exactly will this war create a return big enough to cover even 1/10 of the expenses in money, lives, and repuation?

As much as I haven't cared for the dems they had lowered our national debt during Clinton's reign.$9 trillion is an amazing amount of debt and when the dems get into power they will be taxing the shit out of people to get it lowered. Hopefully they will target big business and people making over $100,000 a year to pay the bulk of it.
