Media. The illegal drug industry can only affect those who choose to be affected.

I agree that the media is more dangerous, but let's not pretend that narcotics do not have societal externalities.

What about the LEGAL drug industry. Those crooks jump for joy when they have a treatment that just so happens to be addictive.
They dont give a shite.

The War Industry says “Hi.”

It would be interesting to see some sort of diagram comparing the two. I think a lot of people will be surprised with how many similarities they share.

To suggest general society isn't affected negatively is beyond absurd.

You have to consume media?

I wouldn’t limit it to media. Movies, television shows, etc included.
It’s amazing how our society has essentially been programmed through the little box on the wall. And yet none of you goober conserrrrrrvatives would dare support government intervention into the content allowed. “Oh it’s the freeee market. If subversive people want to push tranny shite and have every commercial be BMWF they have the right”
Well I’m not a conservative, I’m a nationalist. And I think we need MUCH tighter controls over the media since it’s such a psychological mechanism for society. “Promote the General Welfare” - right there in the Declaration of Independence you Ben Sasse loving cucks.

Though it's not one of your options I'd like to pose this one - the Democratic political party industry.

Stop it. Most GOP are right there with them. The GOP establishment would love nothing more than open borders. Stop framing the GOP as any sort of savior for the country.

Since we’re just naming things we hate, the big banks...

Triggered are you? No one has said the Repb. party is God's answer to what is wrong with American politics but it sure isn't heading us to hell in a hand basket like the democratic party is. A party that doesn't denounce post birth abortion is just one of the examples of the path we are on.

I'll agree with you here, though in not many other aspects.
Back to the topic, I just found this article through another website I read. I only just began reading it, but so far, it is a terrifying account of a cartel known as CJNG that has expanded across the country, from obvious metro centers to small towns.

Glad I'm not the only one that caught that. What a tool.

Bill is so much more intelligent than you on this and every other subject. Because you may have a greater ability to control yourself when you use drugs, doesn't mean he's nonsensical. He's got a greater purpose than you here. Argue, downvote, whatever. Truth is truth.

A) I have read and listened to BB for decades. I know his positions.
B) You must be a genius to be able to discern that BB is "more intelligent than" I am on "this and every other subject." That is AMAZING! You are an American Treasure.
C) "Because you may have a greater ability to control yourself when you use drugs, doesn't mean he's nonsensical" - - well, sense we're on nonsense. I'm not even sure what your point is here. BB was spouting unscientific BS about muh weed making people crazy and being a gateway drug. More importantly, he made no case whatsoever for the policy of throwing drug users in jail. Rather he erected a strawman about the "dangers" of drug use and "the black market."
I've respected BB in certain things. This is not one of them.

D) Now we learn that Best Banker is not only the arbiter or intelligence but a prophet. A veritable sage of the Lord Himself! Divining the very purpose of men on earth.
You've had a busy morning.
