How many of these are for marijuana?<br />There seems to be a spreading belief, at least among republicans, that everybody in America should be subjected to living in constant fear. What a bummer. If they win the next election, we should expect this type of governance for a generation.N.

Not likely. <br /><br />No agency, however lionized, is immune to economics.032125https://www.blogger.com/profile/11092860450994272341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4912713243046142041.post-48785253361332072482011-09-12T06:55:48.819-05:002011-09-12T06:55:48.819-05:00I envy people who reached adulthood before 9/11 be...I envy people who reached adulthood before 9/11 because it seems like Americans were freer then. I turned 19 less than two weeks after the attacks, so I was just becoming an adult when the country changed.
