That last question of mine was like a Christopher Walken Joke, sort of.

Also, I don't see how the government wouldn't profit off of legalizing pot. I mean, they could charge like $20 for a pack, lol. :P

the government cant make money because its so easy to make it yourself, so why buy it if you can grow it? alcohol is harder to make it yourself so they can get lots of money after legalizing it.

Dunno about that. Beer's pretty easy to make. You can even get instant beer making kits over here. You can knock up a bigass barrel-full and it'll be ready in like 5 weeks. Which reminds me, I need to make room in my cupboards for food so... :beer:

If the government allows for the controlled production of marijuana and taxes the hell out of it they could make some decent cash if they crack down hard on "bootleg weed."

Anyways, if I had to make money by legal means, what would be the best way?

William Randolph Hearst had accumulated a chain of newspapers that made him the most influential man in America. He also owned vast timber holdings which fed the paper industry. Lammont Du Pont was his friend and supplied toxic chemicals which were needed for making paper. He was also the spearhead for a fledgling petrochemical industry. Both men stood to loose large if hemp turned the industrial revolution corner, which it looked like it was about to do with the invention of the "decorticator", a far superior machine to Jefferson's hemp break. With this new invention, it appeared that hemp could now be processed quickly enough to be used for paper and plywood instead of trees, and the petrochemical industry was and embarrassment considering you can make the same five hundred biodegradable products from hemp. This was not good news for Mr. Hearst or Mr. Dupont. Henry Ford had already made and fueled a car almost entirely from hemp, and it actually looked as if hemp had the capacity to affect Hearst and DuPont's bottom line.

Hearst ordered all his editors to write scathing stories about marijuana to which they replied, "What's that?" Hearst made the word up because he knew no one would believe scathing stories about hemp. The articles all denigrated Mexicans, African Americans, Jazz Musicians, and the city of New Orleans, suggesting that marijuana use would certainly lead to crime, insanity, and early violent death. After a few years of this bombardment, the country was primed for the marijuana tax act of 1937.

Yeah, basically. It would still be illegal to cultivate it personally. It just goes to show the true nature of reality. It's not illegal so much because of it's negative qualities (I mean cigarettes are legal, and the "Truth" commercials told me they were the devil, and there's always alcohol. Drunk driving accidents are one of the number one killers after all.) it's just more so about how better they can make money off of it. Not like people grow their own tobacco. Hell most people don't even like to buy "roll-your-owns", I'm sure they could make money off of it. However, instead they're probably profiting more by keeping it illegal and making drug busts. I'm not exactly sure, but they probably turn that basically free confiscated drugs into money. That way they're essentially getting something for nothing. Then again, maybe I'm crazy and don't know what I'm talking about. :lol:

Even I can answer that:

You commit suicide.


Pd: sorry for necroing, but this thread was just too awesome and I cant acept the fact that is......*weeps pathethically*..... dying....

Pd2: The fact that in my country is 2:30 am in a school/laboral day and I am incredibly bored should be also taken into consideration...

As do I. I was rereading this thread the other day, and I'm thinking, 'I can't believe I said that before'.

But yeah, feel free to ask a question, and I'll answer it with full professionalism that you can't get anywhere else. Talk to your priest about your problems? No, he'll probably fondle you instead. Talk to Dr. Eldo. He'll do it for free (answer your questions, not fondle). This is the place that'll teach your about condoms and none of that abstinence crap.

Suppose there is a labyrinth, with 3 exits. One leads to salvation, and the other two to eternal damnation. In front of every door there is a guard. I only got once chance to ask one question and then I have to walk through a door, never coming back.

This I know: One always tells the truth, one always lies, and one stabs people who ask tricky questions.

How will I ever get out?

Ask the one who tells the truth which one is the door to salvation, and go out that way.

I have a problem with staring at women with very large breasts, however the only reason why it is a problem is because the very large breasted women say its a problem. Are they right?


Also, what damages could occur if i were to lets say, push a female down some stairs?

I always drink beer on Fridays, why is that?
Is it some kind of ancient ocult Swedish ritual of sorts or why do I have this urge?
