It's the economy, stupid
I have the solution for the country’s economic woes. Really. If the country’s politicians do what I say, there will be large revenues available to stabilize the markets and to inject back into the stream of commerce, thereby making everyone happier. Consumer spending will be up, housing markets will start to rebound and – most importantly – everyone will be relaxed!
Figured it out yet? Yep. Legalize marijuana (and throw in prostitution if you want). Estimates of the annual marijuana market range from $10 billion to $100 billion. Tax the import, export and sale of marijuana. Help the economy.
Duuuuuuude.
Quote of the … well, ever.
