GAAAAH!
Two things:
#1: Okay, I am so fricking gullible...Alex Erin's story isn't really going to be a TV show. April Fools. In retrospect, I don't know how the hell I fell for that, but I confess; I totally got suckered.
#2: Here's your first sample of how NationStates is retarded. Ready?
Apparently, marijuana use is rampant in my country. What are the positions offered?
1.) Ban pot in all public places, because apparently productivity in the workplace is down and petty theft is up.
2.) Let anybody smoke anything anywhere, because otherwise "whoa, like, the fascists win, dude".
No middle ground, naturally, between "100% free" and "public ban". WTF? Factories aren't public places, imbeciles! Employers should have a perfect right to say "no smoking in my building". People can smoke in the park, on the street, etc etc...but workplaces, stores, restaraunts, etc. are all private property, where the owner's rights, not the public's, are what matter most. If your workers are coming in stoned, fire them. That's NOT the same as "ban in all public places". Who comes up with this shit?
Song lyrics:
You know the one thing you're fighting to hold
Will be the one thing you've got to let go
And when you feel the war cannot be won
You're gonna die to try what can't be done
Gonna stay (stay out) but you don't care
Now is there nothing like that inside of you anywhere...
Just take a fall...you're one of us...
The spotlight is on...
