Can we also quit treating those addicted to drugs?(nm) - tigerinhogtown STL - 11/5 10:10:20

can you be specific? Who is “we”? (nm) - pickle MU

- 11/5 10:17:30

Non-addicts(nm) - tigerinhogtown STL - 11/5 12:50:25

But it doesn't end organized crime... just minimizes black - Spanky KU - 11/5 10:03:53

All of those industries are heavily, heavily regulated - ummmm MU - 11/5 10:06:06

Read the OP again. Do you think ending the war on - Spanky KU - 11/5 10:09:41

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

and 3 on pot in CA and 1 on cigarettes. WTF is your point? - Spanky KU - 11/5 10:19:31

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

yes (nm) - pickle MU

- 11/5 10:57:09

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

Taxes too. (nm) - ummmm MU - 11/5 10:54:33

Taxes are included in total cost to sell - Spanky KU - 11/5 11:13:56

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

That was referring to when it makes sense to smuggle and - ummmm MU - 11/5 10:34:28

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

"Ending the war on drugs" has many different meanings - ummmm MU - 11/5 10:12:29

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

Yes, that is what he meant. Pickle is pretty clear on his - ummmm MU - 11/5 10:23:47

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

Because that wasn't the topic, Spanky. (nm) - ummmm MU - 11/5 10:36:15

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

Are you saying you have been unable to post your point - Spanky KU - 11/5 10:23:37

have a good day, Spanky (nm) - pickle MU

- 11/5 10:29:54

Run away, again - Spanky KU - 11/5 10:30:46
