Maybe a more visable presence would help. Perhaps, bicycles or walking a beat should be tried. Mary Ann   more ›

If marijuana is legalized and all this money is freed up, the unemployment rate will jump up. As ridiculous as it seems, it is a big reason now with Obama in re-election mode. The war on drugs is now a jobs program, just like the war in Afghanistan.   more ›
