>>2580Sociopaths are usually the "bad guys" in life. They take the route to get what they want in the way that works best for their interests, not others. These people eventually get into power because the "good guys" know damn well that power positions are absolutely riddled with these sociopaths who would even kill to get what they want. As time goes by these sociopaths find new ways of making money and extending their power. For example soda beverage companies water down their products every few years in order to use less resources and drive revenue up, essentially having you pay full price for less of a product. Another example, far worse, is that the space tech companies of old, such as Boeing have either bought out some of their dying competitors or not, and placed themselves into what is called the Military industrial complex. They then create figures out of thin air regarding the costs of what they sell out our government and help bankrupt the US nation. It didn't work like WW2 because we are paying more for our equipment than we are producing revenue to counter our spending. Why does all of this seemingly irrelevant shit matter? Well for the most part the details are irrelevant, but the fact that these sociopaths exist do. Think about it like this, if the majority of Americans do not want the wars and use of military to continue, why is it that it does? Companies bribing government officials. In other words, we call this blatant collusion, lobbying. It's how the suppression of the cannabis industry started. Anyone with some fucking brain cells to rub together knows damn well that Reefer Madness isn't true. The facts about industrialized marijuana are true, you can make paper with it, you can make cement, you can make a host of other things. You can smoke it too. But who does this jeopardize? Tobacco companies, logging and other industrial companies, and even the prisons of America. Yes, American prisons are in fact privately owned companies who's interests are those of an educated businessman, and not that of a rehabilitator. Capitalism was good to get this nation started, but it needs reins. It's a damn beast, and we humans domesticate beasts, because if they continue to act like so we put them down. All that would save western civilization is knowing how we could somehow separate business from government, if we do not we go down a poorly chosen path, just like the rest of humanity.
Hope that answered why your harmless hobby is illegal. Also, don't do drugs at work if that's the problem. Some people can handle it, most cannot, myself included.
