    How would you change the government structure to make it better?

    As much as some people waqnt help it isnt that easy. SOme people describe it as every second without their drug is like another second without air.

    Delaware has a pretty cool law, where you can send your children to ANY school in Delaware and the state will provide transportation.

    So, you can go to the best highschool even if your outside the school district. This did create another problem though... The best highschools started getting to many transfers and then had to start an application program to choose which students got to go there, and which ones did not.

    As a student of history I don't think man is capable of a perfect utopia. We are human. It is our natural right to survive however that maybe. The human nature of it all throughout history is greedy, corrupt governments. However it's not the government it's the people who run it. The system should work in a perfect world. But as you already know If a third party such as the green party were to come on strong sure enough the CIA would take care of things for the statis quo. Throuh out history the christian etihic had to enslave indians, and blacks and other ethnic races to show their superiority. Still today we are taking over countries and stealing there reasourses economicly.
    A good read " Cofessions of an Economic Hit Man." Why do you think we are in a war????OIL money, power= control. Are we truly free in the USA or is that all we know? The more money you have the more freedom you have????
    The fact is look at all the cultures before the whiteman came to rape and pillage. They were content in there own world. IE Indians, Hawaiians, Africans, etc. with there own cultures, ideas, races, creed, colors and religions. We distroyed there cultures and tried to ingrain ours. We white washed other cultures for power and control. We continue to do so today. Just because we have control and power......Are we the chosen ones?

    hey irayone thats the dumbest thing iv'e ever heard.so white man is the reason for all the war lmfao so the Egyptian's are considered a white men too?as they were one of the first to use slavery.and where is egypt?at the top of africa and they look black mixed with middle eastern to me so when the Egyptian's inslaved the jews that was ok to do??really u should be thanking the white man as without them everyone would still be livin in grass huts and what about the indians of the usa well really asians that came through alaska to the us but what about them b4 (whiteman)came along they were fighting with each other (diffrent tribes)all the time.so u need to go slap the person or person's that have brain washed u into submission lol white man lol

    How would you change the government structure to make it better?

    I would do two main things.

    First, I would rescind 'personhood' for corporations.

    Second, I would add the following introductory clause to all corporate charters: "First do no harm", just like physicians treat patients. And if they violate it they are fined massively (not the bs of today), and/or placed under oversight of the SEC/EPA or whoever suits the nature of the violation.

    I dont understand what is so hard to realize about what you said... People dont start taking drugs because they are addicted. They start them because of the euphoric feeling that is associated with that particular drug.

    Some people are addicted to sex, stealing, work, dogs, computers, gambling, and a whole lot of other things. So if someone who is "addicted" to stealing takes something, than they should be punished. If someone who is addicted to sex rapes someone, they should be put to death. If someone who is addicted to work to the point where they ignore their wife/husband on a continuous basis , than sometimes their spouse will leave them.

    The point that im trying to make is that there has to be a balance. For every action, there is a reaction. The world doesnt take excuses on any level as a means to forget the harms or problems you put on others.

    If i was addicted to gambling to the point where i took speed to stay up all night and day on a constant basis, and than i became far into debt with both drug dealers, and loan sharks, and than became a thief and accidently killed someone trying to get the money to pay off my "debts". Should i not have to face the consequences for my actions?

    Education is the key.

    well for starters iv'e never taken any drugs of any kind i don't even smoke ciggs or drink never tried them. but everyone else around me has all my family everyone i know does one or the other. and at one point or another they've all said it was a lack parenting or peer pressure. or something that got them started.

    then sum have said it was an injury and weed help alot in letting them eat or whatever the case. and i growing up used to think it was evil all of it just because i'd seen what it would do to people mainly young people.u know the lazy all i want to do is lay around and smoke all day type.+ what i was tought by my dad and school and all that.and the older iv'e got and the more i see happen in the world and the more iv'e learned on my own. i have learned that the reason say, weed for starters gets such a bad rap is because 1st u have to see where the prob starts and thats with parents.

    lets say a parent has cancer or what ever the case and nothin really works to stop the pain. and he/she can't eat and all the scrips from doc just make it worse so they smoke a lil weed to settle the stomach so they can eat.(yes i know of this because someone in my family had this and the weed helped him see just because i don't smoke or do anything like that i really have no vice see thats where the prob starts but anyways).so say he's out back smoking or where ever and his /her kids sees them over and over smoking this stuff. and then sees all there peers start smoking because of pretty much seeing there parents smoke it but don't really know why other than it (gets them high). so there like oh i can smoke this and feel good and heck everyone else is doing it so thats pretty much where it starts. not always like that but 90% of the time it falls in there somewhere. either friends or family but it's never explained why they are doing it just that it makes u feel high.


    so the lack of knowledge is where it starts and by the gov. and everybody saying hey it's just bad thats all u need to know just say no type bs is what would make more people do it for the wrong reasons. do u see where im going with this? instead of saying hey it can be used for this and this but don't just take it just because. thats where the abuser's get started lack of knowledge. and humans being humans it's in our nature to over indulge in things. so with out proper knowledge is where the abuse would come into it.

    i know i saw my dad for the past 3 years go from one of the hardest working people in the world. he worked 7 days a week (for himself remodeling houses and other stuff).to finding out he had prostate and bone cancer and still went to work everyday. and doing fine then they put him on oxy's morphin and a ton of other stuff. and by the end of it he was thinking of droping all that and just smoking the weed. or thats what i was trying to get him to do cause he could'nt eat or do anything around the last 5 mo of his life. then they put him on 160mg of oxy's a day. + hydrocodone +morphine +patches of morphine. and then i found him dead not knowing at the time cause i just opened the door and saw him and went to call hospice. the ones that gave him all that shit. and then found out he shot himself in the head.

    so i believe it was the drugs that did it cause he did'nt believe in doing that. but now i wonder what would have happened if he didn't take all that shit and just smoked the weed. i think it would have been alot better for him. see i used to hate weed. and what it would do to people (in the wrong way as i explained above but with the right teachings and knowledge it can be a really good thing). and what got me to believe this is, is'nt it funny the gov will say and allow all these drugs like oxy and the thousands of others that are aproved to be on the market. and thats ok and good for u but kills thousands a year. when i have yet to hear of weed killing anyone. what that tells me is it's ok to have drugs out there. no matter how bad they can be as long as the gov can turn a profit. then it's ok i say, fuck them now.
