The the fact that the VA gives out PTSD "service connected" wasn't enough,, now they will add free POT to sweeten the offer.

I guess that will be a second lie for pot-smoking PTSD patients to tell on the 4473.

This is just another angle on the old "bread and circuses" approach to modern government...
...with a dystopian twist that most of us never saw coming.


For years now folks look at the ridiculous shit that flows out of DC and then use quirky little quotes from George Orwell novels to illustrate how ass backwards our government has become.
-Well, I would like to take this opportunity to offer an alternative dystopian book to compare against our government. Take a look at Aldous Huxley's "Brave New World" and then look at the way the POTUS and those of his ilk have managed the country over the last few years.

The way that our current politicians portray drugs, sex, human relationships, and a general Que Sera Sera attitude to pretty much every social issue is a much more effective way of controlling a nation of weak minded goons.

ISIS has it all wrong - you don't need a sledgehammer to destroy a nations treasures - just a tiny little chip here and a tiny little chip there and before you know it, the statue will seem to crumble all by itself.


Good luck America, you're going to need it.
