I would happily ditch the "war on drugs" which has worked about as well as prohibition.
If the U.S. has to borrow money from China, is it really the richest country in the world?
I do believe that it is not necessary to prosecute people in order to hold them responsible. I keep in mind that the pilot of the plane which dropped the bomb on Hiroshima, committed suicide - on the 40th anniversary. He recognized his responsibility. That is good enough for me. We recognize the responsibility of the more recent criminals. I believe it is something they will also recognize and have to live with.
This "richest country in the world" is in enough debt and has more than enough other problems needing attention.
I also believe Obama is doing the best he can with the reality of what he has been given.
