    War on Drugs = Crime Against Humanity

    Interesting interview...

    Daily Bell: Are we really all criminals now in the eyes of our governments? Why?

    Nick: Yes, I believe that is the case. If you just imagine all of the laws, all of the regulations that Americans are subjected to, everyone really is a criminal because everyone is always breaking some law or rule. There’s probably no better place to understand this than a book called Three Felonies a Day, whose author did a study that shows that the average American inadvertently commits three felonies a day just because there are so many laws and they can be interpreted so broadly that even the most mundane activities have been criminalized. The situation amounts to prosecutorial discretion, meaning they can pin anything on anybody if they really wanted to. This is because if you look at it right now, there are thousands of federal laws; when the US was founded, there were only three federal laws on the books—treason, piracy, and counterfeiting. Now there are thousands of them.

    And we haven’t even mentioned the nearly 74,000 pages of the US Tax Code. Does anybody really understand it all, and is anybody ever 100% compliant with everything? That’s why we are all criminals now. Not in the real sense of the word, not in the sense of committing aggression against another person or their property, but in the sense of breaking the edicts of the bureaucrats, many if not most of which amount to so-called victimless crimes....

    I think when you consider the totality of the drug war—the police state that comes with it, the jailing of people for victimless crimes, the loss of civil liberties, all the money wasted and lives ruined—I think you can correctly call the war on drugs a crime against humanity.

    Even the basic premise - that someone other than a person himself can assert control over a person's very mind - is a crime against humanity. The rest of that is just add-ons.

    When you consider that every federal regulatory agency has tens of thousands of codes and rules, then add UN, state, county and municipal codes, rules, edicts, pronouncements and mandates and there are millions of laws.

    Nobody could comply with or comprehend them all.

    We are all criminals.

    And it's just a matter of putting enough surveillance in place to catch us all.

    Welcome to the Brave New World.

    4,000,000 words in US tax code

    Average American adult reading speed 250 words per minute.

    16,000 minutes

    aka 266 hours

    Average American spends 5 hours 42 minutes per week reading.



    If the average American read nothing but US tax code, it would take

    46.78 weeks

    to get from front cover to back.

    'We endorse the idea of voluntarism; self-responsibility: Family, friends, and churches to solve problems, rather than saying that some monolithic government is going to make you take care of yourself and be a better person. It's a preposterous notion: It never worked, it never will. The government can't make you a better person; it can't make you follow good habits.' - Ron Paul 1988
