Mexico Tourism Suffers
 
Who would think that having peoples heads cut-off on vacation would impact where people choose to go? Bad enough they give you a Toyota as a rental down there.

Mexico doesnt deserve our tourism money. We should start going after the druggies since the Mexican government cant take care of it. Especially if these worthless druggies cross into our country we should shot to kill and get rid of the trash.

man, every once in a while i read in this politics forum.....and man its just too funny. this is where the real brains hang out. no, theres no DRUGGIES in this country. i wonder why all those mexicans are smuggling drugs in. if they don't they'll start robbing pharmacies too....wait, a ton of people (here) are already hooked on the LEGAL crap too and already steal from the pharmacies! WE TAKE GREAT CARE OF THE DRUGGIES.....theres no drug problem here!!!!! everyone gets them....lol. last time i went to a nascar race i didn't see guys puking and passing out. people don't abuse drugs in this country..............

Yeah expand the war on drugs. You're winning.

Patrick333 03-19-2010 08:08 AM

I've never been and I never will go to Mexico. I've traveled to a lot of places but I just never wanted to go to Mexico.

If the government buys drugs like you want them to how are they going to help pay for your health insurance under this new crappy health insurance bill that passed. Thats right according to you lets punish the healthy person and make them pay more for no reason other than to benefit you. Is the government going to pay to send my son to college? Probably not. So why should a healthy person get punished to help pay for your health insurance just because you have a pre existing condition. As you also said you care about yourself well guess what all I care about is myself my son and wife. I could care less if your wanting pity for you or help with your health insurance premium because you have a pre existing condition.

What does legalizing drugs have to do with the healthcare debate? For that matter, what does it have to do with mexican tourism??

i think they should legalize drugs for several reasons. one, it would hurt the drug cartels, two it would help budgets as the need for jail space and guards would drop dramatically, and three-the money made by taxing the stuff would add to tax revenue.

and like dala said, what does legalizing marijuana, etc, have to do with the health care debate?

I was asking that question because letswastemoney feels he deserves a free ride because he has pre existing condition. If the government pays for the drugs where is the money going to come from to pay for his free ride in regards to health insurance.

He said that in another thread that was about the health care bill.

miraja2 04-18-2010 03:25 PM

Over the last two days I finally realized that Nascar actually just doesn't understand how a site like DT.com works. It is all a big puzzle to him. He was baffled by the idea of a signature yesterday, and now he seems unable to grasp the idea that different threads are about different topics.
Let's not all just belittle him for this lack of competence. That's unnecessarily cruel. Somebody simply needs to mentor him.

Who wants to volunteer?

Oh yeah?
Well I STILL don't like the fact that Pepper's Pride broke that record, so I'm not going to listen to anything you have to say about tourism in Mexico.

I meant that if the government sold the illegal drugs, the drug wars might stop. I worded it poorly.

I wasn't mentioning health care though.

Actually, it doesn't even have to be the government offering drugs.

Let anyone sell the less dangerous drugs like marijuana legally, and the drug wars might at least be reduced.

People would become addicted, but people are going to buy illegal drugs whether it's illegal or not, so the current system doesn't work.

I was just curious as to where the money would come from for health insurance if money was used to buy drugs. I do agree with your statement that people are going to buy drugs whether its legal or illegal.

Mentor me? What about mentoring the individual using my quotes? If you look at the thread you will see why I did it. Just curious as to why you feel you can label me incompetent.

Don't worry, I've spoken to Grits and she's on her way out of DT-retirement to mentor you.
