Subject: Re: What sticks in my gullet
it is the tardy GOP support for cannabis revenue that has finally pushed it into legality for many states
Hrsly a surprise, conservatives are “tardy” on most everything.
Civil rights for minorities, for instance.
Equal rights for women.
Universal health care (still fighting that one)
Opposition to the vietnam war
Birth control and abortion (still fighting that one too)
Medicare and Social Security although for their commonfolk voters that’s a bridge too far
Heck they were against the Interstate Highway System until Ike said it was necessary for the military (it never was and never will be)
Well the list is long: much regulation including the EPA, SEC, and lots more. Our conservative friends at Heritage want to do away with the FDIC, fer cryin out loud.
Unions? Don’t make me laugh. Food safety? Who needs it?
Yep, some people enjoy the hard won fruits of progress, then complain that it might cost them a dollar. Weird.
