  • You’re right. It’s almost like we could benefit from some sort of…consumer financial protection bureau.

    Joking aside, this is a hard problem to solve with multinational corporations running the show. I certainly don’t think we sufficiently regulate corps in the states, quite the opposite really - they buy politicians in a legalized bribery scheme we call “campaign finance donations,” and are never held accountable for this type of predatory behavior.

    This problem is 10x worse on an international scale, no idea how to solve for it. Maybe something like the TPP could have helped but not sure.

    Bro you serious with this post?

    That’s shake from the bottom of a bag, sprinkled into someone’s used glove potentially with their glove-y hand sweat mixed in.

    You might be able to roll it all up to smoke but it would be extra smokey (in a bad way) with all those leaves and stems and probably wouldn’t produce much effect.

    Not legit, pretty gross, hope you didn’t pay money for that






  • I think what you’re describing is the current reality, and so we would need a paradigm shift. It could happen via a mass cultural awakening, where people decide the rich should not be the ones ruling their lives. This is in fact the essence of American democracy. I believe this is already happening, you just don’t hear about it on TV.

    We’d have to demand that candidates run on, and elect them on, policy. This is the tricky part…turning a blind eye to America’s greatest export, advertising and marketing (propaganda).
