Q1. Why should we have to help pay for other people to live. Times are rough, we have to bust our asses to feed our family's and make a good life. We shouldn't have to give our money we can use to support our family's to help someone who doesn't have a job, or is trying to scam the system, which happens everyday. We should be able to keep all of our money. But seeing that won't ever happen, we should only pay the least in taxes possible. And those who are skating, stop being lazy and get jobs. I'm not saying accidents happen, or whatnot or you were given a bad set of cards, but make the best of what you got.

Q2. This year we have the chance to lower the punishment for marijuana from being criminal and being held against someone to civil, which will save massive amounts of money. Over 30 million dollars is spent on arrest cost every year if not much more all coming out of the taxpayers money, because so many people are being arrested with marijuana. When you see someone drunk, we don't think nothing of it, see someone high they are a drugy. Yet there are successful people fully functionable who smoke just like people who drink. Regardless if we are good pepople, this makes us out to look like bad people. Why should we have to pay money out of our income because someone wants to smoke. This is money we bust our asses for, yet we have to pay money. Regardless if we agree with everyones decisions, we shouldn't punish ourselves.


We have to stand up for what we believe in. There are Pros and Cons to everything. The way our economy is today, can we really afford to have taxes taken out and pay for bullshit outside our control. In life we have decisions. What we do today, could impact the rest of our lives. We are dealt a hand of cards, its not the hand that allows you to win, its how you play the hand.
