Subject: RE: BS: USA PATRIOT Act (Part 2)
I just saw a commercial on the Tele that said that the money you spend on illicite drugs goes to support terrorism... Or at least some of it does... Well now I uhhhh... lets see here...I'm of the opinion that the drugs are a passing fancy for misspent youth, and could easily be discarded... But if we wish to get *picky*, and there are more every day who feel the 'urge', don't the billions spent on overseas oil every day end up supporting terrorism a thousand times more? Don't the legal drugs and anti depressants make an intollerable social 'order' seem OK? And what about this new trad music movement anyway? Why are all these people turning away from popular music culture and aquiring ancient acoustic instruments? Surely they can't expect to gain anything from it!!! *big grin*
