                    ending the war on drugs - ashtray UF - 11/5 10:12:43
                         If pickle meant he wanted to end all regulations, - Spanky KU - 11/5 10:17:14
                              you could call it that, yes.... - ashtray UF - 11/5 10:34:09
                              One of your examples related to alcohol (nm) - ummmm MU - 11/5 10:18:28

                                        If you regulate/tax something too much, then there is - ummmm MU - 11/5 10:23:09
                                             What is 'too much' tax or regulation? - Spanky KU - 11/5 10:25:12
                                                  in this context, it's enough to create an incentive - SwampTiger MU - 11/5 10:27:09
                                                       what is that number? - Spanky KU - 11/5 10:28:52
                                                            it isn't a specific number - SwampTiger MU - 11/5 10:38:51
                                                                 does it? If there was no tax on pot (as is the case for - Spanky KU - 11/5 10:46:42

                                                                      sure - SwampTiger MU - 11/5 10:52:15
                                                                      yes - ashtray UF - 11/5 10:52:14
                                                                           So not taxes.. it is total cost to sell. - Spanky KU - 11/5 10:54:11
                                                                                both - ashtray UF - 11/5 10:57:03

                                                                      It very well could. (nm) - ummmm MU - 11/5 10:49:42
                                                            that depends on the cost of capital - ashtray UF - 11/5 10:36:08
                                                            It depends. It's not a hard and fast number for any given - ummmm MU - 11/5 10:35:42
                                                  More than 0% - ummmm MU - 11/5 10:26:14
                                                       Than why did you say 'too much tax' when you meant - Spanky KU - 11/5 10:27:39

                         What regulations? - Mizzou Lou KC - 11/5 10:14:51

                         exactly. he’s playing dumb - pickle MU - 11/5 10:20:47
                         Do you think that's what pickle meant? End regulations? - Spanky KU - 11/5 10:18:33

                                   Then why didn't he say 'end all regulations and taxes on - Spanky KU - 11/5 10:26:16
                                        Because that is the topic of the morning - ummmm MU - 11/5 10:27:23
                                             Then why didn't he say end all taxes and regulations? - Spanky KU - 11/5 10:30:23

                                                       It actually WAS his topic, but he failed to state that - Spanky KU - 11/5 10:48:42
                              why are you pretending to ignore 8 years - pickle MU - 11/5 10:21:29
